Tragedy

Some say it's destiny

Whether triumph or tragedy

But I believe we cast our nets out on the sea

And nothing we gather comes for free

I would have paid down through the years

A price beyong rubies beyond tears

To keep you safe with me

But your suspicion and your fear

Your vow to let nobody near

Was your trinity such a tragedy

I drew the best hand you'd ever hold

Then cashed my winnings in long ago

Settled for silver how could I know

You were waiting with the gold

I could have caused your heart to yield

But I was only a disturbance in the field

Of your dreams

And I will never see you cry

You won't be with me when I die

A waste of you and me

A tragedy

We took the wrong train to kingdom come now

No more damage can be done baby

It's just what the world don't need

It's another stinkin tragedy

That's how the story goes

Our chapter's coming to a close

We are history

But I will always think of you

Every day until my days are through

You made me believe

In tragedy

In tragedy
