I never thought

I never thought that you'd desert me
at the time when I needed you most
I never thought you'd be the one to hurt me
by disappearing like some kind of ghost
I never thought I couldn't bear to think about you
darlin', I don't know how 
I never thought I'd have to live without you
but baby, I'm thinking 'bout that now

          I've got whiskey and wine
          to quiet my troubled mind
          every substance the street will allow
          I never thought you'd be gone
          and I'd have to move on
          but baby, I'm thinking 'bout that now

I always thought you were my only lady
and that your love was forever true
but I never thought you would betray me
and that you'd know exactly what to do

          right now the only path in sight
          are those countless sleepless nights
          remembering every broken vow
          I never thought you wouldn't stay
          I never thought you'd slip away
          but baby, I'm thinking 'bout that now

          to you, my purest love
          was one big unfunny joke
          to me, you are my dreams
          going up in smoke

I never thought that you'd leave
and I'd be left to grieve
but baby, I'm thinking 'bout that now
I never thought that you'd go
when you know I love you 
but baby, I'm thinking 'bout that now
baby, I'm thinking 'bout that now
