C Am
I thought you were a constant in sickness and in health
C Am
but everyone wants somebody with energy and wealth
E7 Am
Will he have a future Will he make you fall apart
E7 Am
Will he make you feel like you were young again at heart
F C
Will he be real beautiful will you be aware
F C
Of feelings you were never really sure were there
G
But they were
I thought you were a constant for better and for worse
I tried to win you back with words I'd written in
I saw they didn't touch you in the way that they once would
If I could get you back then I'd do anything I could
I know you're pretty busy it's rarely on your mind
but it doesn't matter where I look you're all that I can find
You are
[CHORUS]:
C Am
So take two steps forward one step back
F C
Let's get it on get back on track
C Am
One to the left then drop your knee
F C
Bring yourself on back to me
I thought you were a constant you said you'd always be
You said that If we ever broke up it would be because of me
I know that you resent me you couldn't let that go
I know you feel uncomfortable that everybody knows
I know I should've said something before it went to far
I know you're trying to find yourself but I know who you are
I do
I thought you were a constant you know everyone has doubts
Aside from all my failures I thought we'd work it out
Does he know that you have got a speckle in your eye
Will he have a nook under his arm for you to cry
Does he make your body ache with passion Well he must
I know I wasn't adequate in with filling you with lust
I was
[CHORUS (x2)]
End with G
