The more you criticize me
the more I know I'm right
I just cant stop this need for you
to help me through the night
and though you treat me badly
treat me like a slave
sure no one would believe it
the way that you behave
Sometimes I dare to wonder
is there life after you
could my heart stand the loneliness
could my head see it through
and I say
oo oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo oo
I thought that we were perfect
the best there's ever been
I would be your gypsy king
and you would be my queen
but real life just ain't like that
and so before to long
my sweet and happy melody
became a sadder song
And though the tune is different
that old familiar blues
there is nothing I would change in us
there is nothing I could lose
and I say
oo oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo oo
