The Girl Next Door
When You Took Your Love Away
(Skip Ewing/Liz Hengber)


The moment that I looked at you a voice inside of me
Said you'd better guard your heart and love him cautiously
Well, if I'd only listened to the things I heard me say
I'd have still been standing when you took your love away

Tell me baby, was it hard to keep up your charade
Did you mark me from the start as a target to be played
I feel so badly cheated, I don't know what to say
Made it look so easy when you took your love away

I gave to you my inside, I gave to you my heart
I gave to you no reason to tear it all apart
Now I'm diggin' through the rubble of a trust that's been betrayed
You did a lot of damage when you took your love away

The only hope I ever have about you anymore
Is someday, someone comes along to even up the score
You won't see it coming, you'll just look on in dismay
You'll be so blind sided when she takes here love away

I gave to you my inside, I gave to you my heart
I gave to you no reason to tear it all apart
Now I'm diggin' through the rubble of a
trust that's been betrayed
You did a lot of damage when you took your love away

I gave to you my inside, I gave to you my heart
I gave to you no reason to tear it all apart
Now I'm diggin' through the rubble of a
trust that's been betrayed
You did a lot of damage when you took your love away
Did a lot of damage when you took your love away
