Lyrics:
I was in love with a married girl For seven years out of eight We carried on in secrecy In shadows I would wait I learned to love with her other life I wouldn't let it break us down 'Cause she said what she did behind my back Was unimportant when I was around. One night when the leaves had turned to gold I sold my love for change I met a younger single girl And the balance got rearranged Maybe it helped me to feel less vulnerable Maybe it was just a seven year itch And I got a job with more money but I Lost the very thing that made me rich Months went by without incident 'Though I was living a life of lies Calculated to protect the innocent But when I saw her she would cry She begged me to tell her it was all over now She cried for me to set her free But I had to hold on to everything Couldn't bear to let her forget about me Oh well the rain was falling down And so she went away And I was buoyed up by the praise of sycophants And the false security of the take home pay Maybe she wrote just to see if I loved her still Maybe she wrote just to say goodbye But I never saw the words she wrote Only the tears that were in my eyes One day when the leaves are green again Maybe she'll let me in We'll sit and talk about everything Just like we were old friends But I couldn't ever get used to it No I wouldn't let it break us down 'Cause I know what I did behind her back Was unimportant when she was around Unimportant when she was around Unimportant when she was around.
