I've Already Played That Song

I've Already Played That Song - By Gary D. Ward; Copyright Gary D. Ward

Don’t know why I took it so hard, when you went away
Your eyes were always on the move, I knew you’d never stay
You were always on the radar, of every guy around

I was just a stop along the way, while you made your way downtown
When your heartthrob turns to heartache and decides to move along
Don’t come crying back to me, I’ve already played that song
It’s a sour note, it’s way off key, and it’s badly out of time
The tone is wrong, and the words don’t even rhyme
You’re so happy in the spotlight, you know just what to say

You’re so proud of your new life, so many games that you can play
when your jewels have lost their luster, and your prince has lost his crown
He’ll cut and run the way he’s done, while your palace crashes down
When your heartthrob turns to heartache and decides to move along
Don’t come crying back to me, I’ve already played that song
It’s a sour note, it’s way off key, and it’s badly out of time
The tone is wrong, and the words don’t even rhyme
