You said what we did from the start was no good
And tried to stop everything that you could
Now you're like a meadow that needs raining on
You're looking for tears but your tears have all gone
You're living with one man and wanted one more
You made up your mind when your heart wasn't sure
Now you're like a meadow that can't grow no corn
You told me to leave but you cry cause I'm gone
Chorus:
There were two ways and I had to choose
You knew all along if I won you would lose
You're like a meadow that needs raining on
You're looking for tears but your tears have all gone
You climb up your staircase and count every step
But you know you're trying so hard to forget
You look in your mirror and comb up your hair
You look at his picture and see my big stare
Chorus
You're like a meadow that can't grow no corn
You told me to leave but you cry cause I'm gone
Yes, you're like a meadow that needs raining on
You're looking for tears but your tears have all gone
