all the king's horses (and all the king's men)

she said she loved me

she told me a lie

she treated me just like a fool

and told all my friends that she'd laugh if i cried

now

it's the talk of the school

and all the king's horses and all the king's men

couldn't bring our love back together again

all the king's horses and all the king's men

couldn't bring our love back together again

i never dreamed that the love we knew

wouldn't last for the rest of our years

but i realize now that we're through

true love's nothing but another word for tears

i saw her at a dance last night

i noticed she came all alone

we danced the last dance

she held me real tight

and whispered

please take me home"
