[Verse 1]
As I stare out the window of our mansion
Our little boy and little girl play in the yard
And I wonder how I'll tell 'em
That their momma and their daddy
Can't stay together 'cause it's just too hard
Can't stay together 'cause it's just too hard
[Verse 2]
So our preacher set us down for some consel
He said "The Lord frowns upon all your runnin' 'round
"All your money and your cars
And all of your lovers
"Spend eternity deep beneath the cold ground
"Spend eternity deep beneath the cold ground"
[Chorus]
Too far gone and past the point of returnin'
Head-over-hells into a trap we can't escape
So who's the leader of this dance?
Oh Lord, we didn't stand a chance
One look, that's all it took and we lost it
One look, that's all it took and we lost it
[Verse 3]
After years of bein' married to each other
Still every day we call each other on the phone
And we cry, Lord, we cry
About the time gone by
How did we lose it all and wind up alone?
How did we lose it all and wind up alone?
[Chorus]
Too far gone and past the point of returnin'
Head-over-hells into a trap we can't escape
So who's the leader of this dance?
Oh Lord, we didn't stand a chance
One look, that's all it took and we lost it
One look, that's all it took and we lost it
