a strange arrangement

Singer:hawthorne, mayer

we took the long and steady road

and from the start you had a heart of gold

you broke the mold

i never thought you would decide

the grass was greener on the other side

of love's divide

you were everything that i wanted and more

now we can't go back where we started

we'll never be like before

darling me and you

we had a strange arrangement

but you broke all the rules

and i'm through playing the fool for love

darling yes it's true

we had a grand engagement

but i can't stand by

while you break my heart in two

oooh

i've got to be a man

baby i've got to take a stand

so

so now we've gone our separate ways

but in my heart i feel the burning flames

of love's remains

i'll have to find somebody new

but all who dare will be compared to you

what can i do

you were everything that i dreamed i would find

now we can't go back where we started

this is the end of the line
