Lyrics
Let's not fight it anymore
Unpack your bags and close the door
Girl, I'll never leave you
Though you lied right from the start
I can't convince my foolish heart
Not to believe you
You've got two good men strung out
And there's not the slightest doubt
That other men have loved you before
But you do your thing so well
I dream of Heaven and I live in Hell
Till I can't take it anymore
If I had one ounce of pride
I'd stand up or step aside
But I still love you, mm-hmm
So I'll accept the crumbs you drop
'Cause I'm a fool and I can't stop
Or rise above you
Let him speak up for himself
I speak for me and no one else
'Cause I'm a beggar knockin' on your door
But you do your thing so well
I dream of Heaven and I live in Hell
Till I can't take it anymore
I'm too far gone to turn around
And pick myself up off the ground
And start all over, and over
Now, one of us must win or lose
No matter which one you may choose
You'll be in clover (you know you will)
While you're makin' up your mind
I'll be prayin' all the time
Prayin' that you'll never let me go
But you do your thing so well
I dream of Heaven and I live in Hell
Till I can't take it anymore, mm-mm
You work your thing so well
I dream of Heaven and I live in Hell
Till I can't take it anymore
Yeah, you do your thing so well
I dream of Heaven and I live in Hell
Till I can't take it anymore
