Not Too Long Ago

We used to go out to parties and shows
 Back when she really really love me so
 Then he came along like a stormy sea
 Not too long ago
 Now she don't love me anymore
 And we would walk 'neath the tall oak tree
 Talking 'bout how happy how happy we would be
 Then he came along like a devil in disguise
 Not too long ago
 Now I got tears in my eyes
 She always said I was her world
 And our love would never die
 She always said we'd ever be as one
 But she left me for letting my heart to cry
 Now I'm so lonely
 Lonely and blue
 'Cause there's nobody I can turn to
 I just let her get away from me
 Not too long ago
 Now she don't want me anymore
 Not too long ago
 And now I'm in a misery
 Not too long ago
 I thought I had a true fine love
 But I was wrong, wrong, so wrong
 Cause I lost it
 And now I feel the sting of bitter tears in my eyes
 Salt water tears in my eyes
 Cause I lost it
 Not too long ago
