They say a woman's a fool for weeping

A fool to break her own heart

I'm breaking apart

Brought the key back to your door

You don't know what a chance is

Until you have to seize one

Until you have to please one
B
  Don't put your life in the hands of a man
       B
With a face for every season

  Don't waste your time in the arms of a man

Who's no stranger to treason
