Grabbed hold of your coat tail but it come off in my hand
I reached for your lapel but it weren't sewn on so grand
Begged, promised anything if only you would stay
Well, I lost a lot of love over you

Fell down to my knees and I hung onto your pants
But you just kept on runnin' while they ripped off in my hands
Di'mond rings, vaseline, you give me disease
Well, I lost a lot of lover over you

I boogied in the ballroom, I boogied in the dark
Tie you hands, tie you feet, throw you to the sharks
Make you sweat, make you scream, make you wish you'd never been
I lost a lot of love over you
