Maureen Mcgovern - Something I Thought I'd Never Do

Too many times,
I've sat across a table
Lending a sympathetic ear
Knowing exactly what I'll hear
Concealing my impatience
With a friend who falls apart
Who's let some guy walk off with her heart
He's gone, she can't forget, it's nothing new
Depending upon your point of view

So many times,
Women have a weakness
For building their lives around a man
Something I never understand
But you and I were different
We were free to come and go
Until you left for good, how could I know?
