From the recording Stealing Every Moment
By Robert & Julie Parlee
Lyrics
Mama told me son, be careful where you tread
Don’t go breakin’ hearts or sleep in another man’s bed
Well, he came along, flashed that devil smile
Yeah, he stole your soul and fooled you like a child
You lose ‘em like you get ‘em, easy come easy go
Love ‘em and forget ‘em, but everybody knows
What goes around comes around, comes back round again
When you love ‘em and you leave ‘em, you lose ‘em like you get ‘em
Well I guess that grass wasn’t greener on the other side.
Was it worth the cost, did he steal more than your pride?
Did he promise you the moon, then leave a cloud of dust?
Well that’s how it feels when you break somebody’s trust.
(Chorus)
If he loves you, why’d he leave you?
Why’d he hurt you and deceive you,
And leave a hole you could not mend?
‘Cause you lose ‘em like you get ‘em, easy come easy go
Love ‘em and forget ‘em, but everybody knows
What goes around comes around, comes back round again
When you love ‘em and you leave ‘em, you lose ‘em like you get ‘em
Easy come easy go
Lose ‘em like you get ‘em
Easy come easy go
Lose ‘em like you get ‘em
