Love's on trial
Unpack my bags for awhile
You know it's the third time

Your cheatin' eyes
While the baby cries
Till death do us part
Puts a pain in my heart
We can't live by those lies

If we could get priorities down
You'd back me up not back me down

Broken hearted bound
When you're the first to take me down
I'm broken hearted bound
Still you're the last to come around

I could never understand
What you need from a man
I'm hearin' the same old line

The first to criticize
The last to compromise
When you've had your say
You just turn and walk away
And I take it each day

If we could get priorities down
You'd back me up not back me down
If we could face reality
Then girl, you just have to let me be

Broken hearted bound
When you're the first to take me down
I'm broken hearted bound
Still you're the last to come around

Broken hearted bound
When you're the first to put me down
I'm broken hearted bound
Still you're the last to come around

Every day, every night
Sometimes I can't sleep at night
