It has to rain in paradise sometimes
And that just may be why you came over tonight
Asking for forgiveness and claiming all your wrongs
But I've nothing to tell you for it's been so very long
And I, I'm sorry to say that for you and I it's over
You bat your eyes and tell me it's just a mistake
It's all so right, this moment, I'm starting to break
And we rush inside the house, find the couch, we're making out
Until your cell gives off a shout and then your mood turns right around
And you say "So sorry to race, but for you and I it's over"
And again I'm left here all alone
In pain to wonder who'd called your phone
You fooled me twice shame on us both
But fool me thrice, I should've known
