Blue Rodeo - Tell Me Again lyrics

Tell me again about that
Love that lasts forever
How we'll ride the ups
And downs all through the years
And I won't think about my pain as
I listen to you explain
How that perfect love just up and disappears

Oh, later on when you're gone
And I can think again
I'll sit down and I'll figure
Out what went wrong
Well, I expect to take my licks
But life plays dirty tricks
I knew that I was sinking but
I held on way too long

Tell me again about that
Love that lasts forever
It's all happiness and smiles and never tears
And I won't think about my pain
As I listen to you explain
How that perfect love just up and disappears

Chestnut eyes and golden hair, well
That's what brought me here
I looked at you and froze right in my place
There's a line you never cross
Between what's won and lost
I knew I stepped right over when
I stared into your face

Tell me again about that
Love that lasts forever
It's all happiness and smiles and never tears
And I won't think about my pain
As I listen to you explain
How that perfect love just up and disappears
How that perfect love just up and disappears
