Album: Lucinda Williams (1988)

Abandoned

All of my love has been taken for granted
I've been fair but you've been underhanded
I've been disgraced, but I can't bear to face it
Cause the truth is my heart has been abandoned.

I was hoping for Heaven, but baby I ain't blind
This ain't the first time I've been undermined
Sad eyes and crooked smile that I remember well
Now it looks like all I got was time to kill

You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes
You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes
Everything I thought we had has all been cast aside
You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes

These boots are the same boots I was wearing then
And this beer I'm drinking is still the same old brand
But these blues are something new, they came around when I lost you
Now it looks like I got stuck with an empty hand

You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes
You can't fool me , I see it in your eyes
Everything I thought we had has all been cast aside
You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes

You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes
