lyrics for horseshoes and hand grenades
verse 1
my love for you is the corner stone
from which i built my life
id sacrifice anything
to keep you as my wife
but lately as time ticks by
and muinites turn to years
i find it hard and tireing
chokeing back these tears
i only fooled myself in thinking
youd be comeing back
but the sands of time have run their race
in our broken hour glass
so i guess you just were lieing
when you said you love me most
if thats the way you think love goes
you werent even close
chorus
so i guess im not forever after
or death do us part
or your mr. perfect
but i gave you my whole heart
im not mr. romantic so there was no seranades
i guess thats why close only counts
in horse shoes and hand greandes
verse 2
i hear the man youre seing now
has brought the youth back to your life
your doing things only dreamed about
when you were my wife
they say that when you love someone
its best to let them go
it should be said someone you love
will leave you all alone
so ill just stay here by myself
since thats the life you chose
but ill hit my knees every night
and pray that youll come home
now i know you were lieing
when you said you loved me most
thats not the way true love goes
man you werent even close
chorus
