I Let You Let Me Down Again - Brenda Lee

(Ed Welch)

Not the first time nor the last
Love's a memory fading fast
I was doing fine but then
I let you let me down again

Didn't want to be your clown
Build me up then let me down
I wanted love, you gave me pain
I let you let me down again
In the time it takes to say
All the things I had to say
You changed your mind and went away
Oh why couldn't you stay.

You didn't even say goodbye
You didn't even cry
You left me standing in the rain
And I let you let me down again

In the time it takes to say
All the things I had to say
You changed your mind and went away
Oh why couldn't you stay.

Not the first time nor the last
Love's a story from the past
And it always ends the same
I let you let me down again
Oh, oh, I let you let me down again
