You seemed to be like a real good idea,<br />
At the time, at the time.<br />
You lifted me up to some higher ground,<br />
Then you knocked me down on the ground.<br />
But I rue that day like I don't know how.<br />
<br />
You picked me up right out of the tide,<br />
My eyes weren't open wide.<br />
I was blind,<br />
But I see much better, much better now.<br />
<br />
Well, I roll with the punches, I sway with the curves,<br />
I walked on a tightrope, didn't lose my nerve.<br />
Stayed on the canvas, couldn't count me out,<br />
Never threw in the towel, yeah, I saw the fight out and how.<br />
All fifty rounds.<br />

You seemed to be like a real good idea,<br />
At the time, don't know why.<br />
But I rue that day like I don't know how,<br />
I rue that day as of now.<br />
I rue that day like I don't know how.
