Lyrics
I, I,
when I was young
er
I, I
should a known bet
ter.
And I
can’t feel no re morse.
And you
don’t feel noth ing back.
I, I’ve
got a new girl
friend.
She
feels like
he’s on top.
And I
don’t feel no re morse.
And you
can’t see past my blind ness.
Oh, O phe li a, you’ve been on my mind, girl, since the flood.
Oh, O phe li a, heav en help the fool who falls in love.
Oh, O phe li a, you’ve been on my mind, girl, since the flood.
Oh, O phe li a, heav en help the fool who falls in love.
