No, baby, I can't tell
when it all went to hell
You came and went so fast,
and I knew this couldn't last
So I made up my mind today,
cause I can't stop it anyway
No, but I've got my memories,
and you can't take that from me
You don't know it,
but you saved my life
Ready, willing, and you took the knife
You remember the day back then,
when we went up to Michigan
I could pretend that you were mine
Even just for a little while
Man, I thought they would throw us out
When they told us to move the bed
Never heard so much noise, they said
I guess we were in love back then
And you don't know it
But you saved my life
Ready, Willie, and you took the knife
Hey now, sunshine, dry those eyes
Cause I'd give anything
for one more night
And I can't even,
I can't even fall asleep
You've taken the best of me
You've shattered and made me bleed
But I'll take it all in stride
Please let me keep my pride
And I'll bury you deep inside
With some help maybe I'll survive
You don't know it
But you saved my life
Ready, willing, and you took a knife
In our sunshine, dry times
Cause I'd give anything
for one more night
Oh baby, I can't tell
When it all went to hell
But I think it's plain to see
You're not in love with me
