Tragedy

Peter Wolf (PW) and Shelby Lynne (SL)
PW
I think I won the fool's award today
The way I made my baby cry
I can't believe the stupid things I said
Well I know one good reason why
I know that life has got its ups and downs
I could take whatever comes around
But if you ever take your love from me
Now that would be the tragedy

SL
To give me love it comes so easily
I though we'd never have to hide
And all this hurtin' just ain't pleasin' me
Now it's washed up in the tide, yeah

Both
Now you can hit me with the wrecking ball
Throw me down the stairs and watch me fall
But if you ever take your love from me
Now that would be the tragedy

PW
Love's so mysterious, it always twists and it bends
SL
Oh, did I get my goodbye kiss, are you tellin' me
Both
This is the end?

PW
We watch the candle and it's burning low
And I just can't walk away
SL
I got so much inside for you to know baby
But there's a price I gotta pay

Both
And I know you wanna see me beg again
Ust to tell me this is the end
And if you never come back to me
Now that would be the tragedy
See me bending on my knees
A livin' breathin' tragedy

PW
Come on
You got me beggin' again girl
SL
Ah, get on your knees, baby
PW
I can't believe, I can't believe, I can't believe it
Tell that it's not the end
SL
You know it darlin'
Ah, yes it is
PW
Can't come back, can't come back (tragedy)
Can't come back, can't come back no I (tragedy)
SL
No no no no no no no (baby) tragedy
PW
Yeah, Don't leave me girl, don't look away
I must be a fool, baby
SL
It's too late
PW
Alright, let's let you get outta here
SL
I'm gone baby
PW
Oh, take me with you when you go
