(J. Brooks)



Oh Betty

You know I loved you so

I'm shattered

It hurt so much to see you go



Give me your heart, I'll keep it beating

And your blood will spill no more

Oh I want to love you Betty

But I can't

'Cause you closed the greatest of doors



Oh Betty

Don't tell heaven where you've been

Don't you know that needing love is not a sin



Give me your soul, I'll be it's keeper

And the words I speak will be yours

Oh I try to hate you Betty

But I can't

'Cause you closed the greatest of doors



And the leaves are starting to fall from the trees again

And I remember when

And autumn wind sang a song of a sin

But I wasn't ready

Oh Betty



Oh Betty

Don't tell heaven where you've been

Didn't you know that needing love is not a sin



Give me your heart, I'll keep it beating

And your blood will spill no more

Oh I want to love you Betty

But I can't

'Cause you closed the greatest of doors



You closed the greatest of doors
