It had promised so much
When her very first touch
Sent a shiver the length of his spine
He had taken the bait
Hadn't nibbled of late
So ignored his own no entry sign
Off he skipped ten feet tall
Barging through every wall
Nothing stands in the way of romance
And when asked "how are you "
He replied this is true
I don't walk over water I dance
But he's one of those guys
Who can look in her eyes
And immediately see past the blue
Something didn't look right
She had changed overnight
What she told him he already knew
There's another named Jim
Who came long before him
She's a slave who is chained to his lies
As he hushed her sweet lip
Feels his paper heart rip
Any life resurrected now dies
