The Fact Remains

I stayed until the Star Spangled Banner played
 And I couldn't keep my eyes open
 I stayed till the buds dried up and fell off on the table
 And there was no hope of my saving them
 Till the last levee broke and the floods came and washed away our home
 Then it was over and I will never be the same
 I finally wised up but the fact remains
 I stayed too long
 I stayed till the last of the bottles was empty
 And whizzing by my head
 I stayed till there was no more air in the room
 And my tears no longer moved you
 Till you lied and you lied
 And you lied and you lied and you lied again
 Then it was over and I will never be the same
 I finally wised up but the fact remains
 I stayed too long, I stayed too long
 Next time maybe I will know how to walk away
 With pride and grace and faith in myself
 Knowing how the world works and the way that things change
 Till you lied and you lied
 And you lied and you lied and you lied again
 Till you lied and you lied
 And you lied and you lied and you lied again
 Then it was over and I will never be the same
 I finally wised up but the fact remains
 I stayed too long
 Then it was over and I will never be the same
 I finally wised up but the fact remains
 I stayed too long, I stayed too long
