You took out that money that your mamma had saved 
She told me she kept it for running away  
Oh my, fortunes can change 
 
You've picked up some tricks that you learnt on your way  
For fear you'd be lonely if you never changed 
Oh my, you lost your faith 
 
We landed on rocks and that’s partly to blame  
We wandered the landscape in this  unbearable pain 
Oh my, your fortune can change 

At least we agree that we’ve wasted our time  
We’ll give up the hope that we’ll meet down the line  
Better off measured in coffee and wine 

I think on it fondly now, the truth can be told 
Some love is ancient and it lives on in your soul  
A fortune that never grows old  

You spent all that money that your mamma had saved 
Told me she kept it for running away  
Never quite found the right way to say  
I’m sorry my darling, my mind it has been changed  
Release me from this unbearable pain 

And so ends a story I had hoped to change 
I had to release us from this unbearable pain  
And promise, we won’t come here again
