But when he makes his pretty mess

Somehow you just fall into it

Have mercy on him
F C F
The love that I gave him is gone
D
Have mercy on him
F C F Fm
The love that I saved for him is gone
He wasn't just another touch
He was something I created
And though I loved him much too much
I never thought my love was wasted
Have mercy on himd
The love that I gave him is gone
Have mercy on him
The love that I saved for him is gone

How do you know who you should blame?
You spend your love, or you conserve it

Have mercy on him
The love that I saved for him is gone
