Too Far

Loretta Lynn · Coal Miner's Daughter [1971]

(Marty Robbins)



I gave you everything I thought

I'd wear your ring someday on my finger

In love so blind I stepped to cross the line

Now just memories of you linger.



Just like a child I wished upon a star

Sometimes the girl in love will go too far

I was a crazy fool

Let my heart overrule.



Each decision my mind was makin'

The harm has done

There is no place to run

You can't give me back what you taken.



I gave my all now I don't know where you are

Sometimes the girl in love will go too far

Too far, oh yes, too far

Sometimes the girl in love will go too far.



But I know I was smart for in a little while

I'll be holdin' somebody new

A little gir,l a tiny baby girl

And I know she will look like you.



And she'll be loved just

The same way that you are

Sometimes the girl

In love will go too far...
