Lyrics

(C)I don’t blame you,

(Em)we got car ried a way.

(Am)I can’t hold on

(F)to an emp ty space.

Now (C)you’ve found a new star to or bit, (Em)it could be love.

I think you’re too soon to call us (Am)old,

when and where did we go (F)cold?

I thought I had you on hold.

And ev ’ry time I let you leave,

I al ways saw you com ing back to me,

when and where did we go (F)cold?

I thought I had you on hold.

does it stop, where does you stop, where do you dare me to?

You’ve got the bod, you’ve got the bod, you’ve got the bod, dare me to.

Where does it stop, where does you stop, where do you dare me to?

You’ve got the bod, you’ve got… I thought I had you on hold,

I thought I had you on hold,

I thought I had you on hold.
