I lost you somewhere in the sweltering heat, at zero degrees.
I prayed for reprieve, but nobody heard those pleas.
Caught something in your eyes that I was desperate for,
But when love came calling, I had a brunette anchor ‘round my neck.
But god, you were something…
When I was young, I loved and lost,
‘Cause I didn’t know what courage was.
She used to love to hear me sing.
When I was young, I loved and lost,
‘Cause I didn’t know what courage was.
She used to love to hear me sing.
Now she wears his ring.
To this day, I see the marks from your nails in my arms,
And I still try to lead with what you once called my charms.
But I’ll never get back to us on my bed.
And I’ll never get used to the taste of the words I never said.
When I was young, I loved and lost,
‘Cause I didn’t know what courage was.
She used to love to hear me sing.
When I was young, I loved and lost,
‘Cause I didn’t know what courage was.
She used to love to hear me sing.
Now she wears his ring.
