Well it used to be you’d come for me
Beyond all probability
I took every opportunity To tell you to go
Oh but you’d tug on each inch I gave
Clear until the mile was made Walk proudly up and down it With the teddy bear you’d won
Whoa whoah hoooooo toodeloo toodeloo
*
Oh my dear, oh my dear Where has it gone Where is that sunshine That I sent home
And the moon is full out tonight Yeah but I got no place to shine Yeah but I got no place to shine

Hey it used to be you’d fall apart Hit the dirt holding your heart well Maybe it’s the looks I’ve lost
Maybe all the stars are gone
And I told you all my favorite things Like Autumn leaves beneath my feet So you brought a bag for me
Of all the ones you saw
Whoa whoah hoooo toodeloo toodeloo
*
Oh you got a job in a flower shop and Sent my mom a bouquet
Thanking her for her daughter And I know time moves on but My love for your love for me Never went away
Hey
1, 2, 3, 4
*

And I thought you were mine But I got no place to shine
It’s just me and the swine and the wine And it’s fine
But I got no place to shine
Oh I’ve got no place to shine
