Tragedy

Some say it's destiny
 Whether triumph or tragedy
 But I believe we cast our nets out on the sea
 And nothing we gather
 Comes for free.
 I would have paid down through the years
 A price beyong rubies beyond tears
 To keep you safe with me
 But your suspicion and your fear
 Your vow to let nobody near was your trinity
 Such a tragedy.
 I drew the best hand you'd ever hold
 Then cashed my winnings in long ago
 Settled for silver how could I know
 You were waiting with the gold.
 I could have caused your heart to yield
 But I was only a disturbance in the field
 Of your dreams
 And I will never see you cry
 You won't be with me when I die
 A waste of you and me
 A tragedy.
 We took the wrong train to
 Kingdom come now
 No more damage
 Can be done baby
 It's just what the world don't need
 It's another stinkin tragedy.
 That's how the story goes
 Our chapter's coming to a close
 We are history
 But I will always think of you
 Every day until my days are through
 You made me believe
 In tragedy...
