lyrics

You came round just the other day
said you came here for to sit and play
on an old 6 string yeah you played the part
but all you were playin was a beating heart
yeah all you were playin was a beating heart

on that front porch playing with a bow in your hair
a bow in your hand movin through the air
scratch on a fiddle an old time tune
Ain’t nothing better than the month of June
yeah ain’t nothing better than the month of June

And we played all night
singing in the moonlight
But something not right

Well You wanted a lover
and I wanted a friend
but that ain’t how true love begins
You played the game, but you played it to lose
But life’s too short, to pick and choose
Oh life’s too short, to pick and choose

Well you stuck around on into the fall
waitin for me to hear that call
The smile you wore was fadin fast
Not every good thing was made to last
Girl not every good thing was made to last

And it’s alright
Don’t think twice
We’ll be just fine
Give it some time

Life is full of deep regrets
But none of them are worth the sweat
Everybody’s got their own set of blues
But life’s too short to pick and choose
Oh life’s too short to pick and choose
