I Knew Him All Along

She was only fifteen years old
He promised the world all diamonds and gold
She knew she’d made a big mistake
When all the promises made led to all things fake
She said
It’s not like I knew him all along
It’s not like we had much in common
It’s not like I knew him all along
It’s not like we had much in common
One day he left her there for dead
When he should have loved her and cared for her instead
But she’s no longer just a child
He set her loose and now she’s running wild
She said
It’s not like I knew him all along
It’s not like we had much in common
It’s not like I knew him all along
It’s not like we had much in common
She takes the baby from the crib
She says daddy’s long gone girl we don’t know where he is
If only I could get a gun
I’d make him pay the price for all the things he’s done
She said
It’s not like I knew him all along
It’s not like we had much in common
It’s not like I knew him all along
It’s not like we had much in common
