Lyrics
All for you
Flowers bloomed all year long
Came in my home shook it upside down
had a good man, broke his heart
Sold dreams of paradise, in the dark
(all For you) gave you everything
(all For you) I gave you all of me
(all For you) gave you all I had
You left me, alone
Grass is greener on the other side
Life so perfect A perfect wife
So lonely, desire is for fools
Learned the hard way, gamblers always loose
(all For you) gave you everything
(all For you) I gave you all of me
(all For you) gave you all I had
You left me, alone
Friends not many, regrets I have a few
Drink with hindsight, shame, dismay and blues
Left for what I wanted, not a clue
What I thought, I thought, I thought, I thought, I thought was you
(all For you) gave you everything
(all For you) I gave you all of me
(all For you) gave you all I had
You left me, alone
