Tell Me Again

Blue Rodeo

Tell me again about that love that lasts forever
How we'll ride the ups and downs all through the years
And I won't think about my pain
As I listen to you explain
How that perfect love just up and disappears

Oh later on when you're gone
And I can think again
I'll sit down and I'll figure out what went wrong
Well I expect to take my licks
But life plays dirty tricks
I knew that I was sinking but I held on way too long

Tell me again about that love that lasts forever
It's all happiness and smiles and never tears
And I won't think about my pain
As I listen to you explain
How that perfect love just up and disappears

Chestnut eyes and golden hair
That's what brought me here
I looked at you and froze right in my place
There's a line you never cross
Between what's won and lost
I knew I stepped right over when I stared into your face

Tell me again about that love that lasts forever
How we'll ride the ups and downs all through the years
And I won't think about my pain
As I listen to you explain
How that perfect love just up and disappears
How that perfect love just up and disappears
