That's the Beginning
of the End
When she don't sweet talk
anymore,
Her kiss ain't like it was
before,
It's time you added up the score, my
friend,
That's the beginning of the end.
She keeps you waitin' for a
date,
Makes no excuse for bein' late,
Wake up an' recognize your fate, my
friend,
That's the beginning of the end.
What she's doing to you, she did to
me,
But I was in love, so how could I see, Better get wise, better beware,
Or one of these days you'll turn
around
an' she won't be there!
Don't say that you were never
told,
I know that character of old,
When she starts strayin' from the
fold, my friend,
That's the beginning of the end!
< instrumental verse >
Don't say that you were never
told,
I know that character of old,
When she starts strayin' from the
fold, my friend,
That's the beginning of the end!
That's the beginning of the end!
