When I first saw you
I was caught off guard
By the beauty that met us
In her front yard
Without delay
We hit it off
Like love at first sight
'Least that's what I thought
I made you smile
You made me a promise
That this was worthwhile
And you would be honest
This love was doomed from the start
In this tale of karma hearts
You hurt me
And I hurt you in tact
We fell apart
Then we came right back
I wanted to kiss you again
That New Year's Eve
But slight misunderstandings
Kept you from me
You were always right there
Just out of my reach
We'd stay as friends
My feelings buried beneath
I'd make you smile
You'd give me hope
It'd go on for awhile
But end up in smoke
This love was doomed from the start
In this tale of karma hearts
You hurt me
And I hurt you in tact
We fell apart
Then we came right back
But this time it was different
We got close
But we kept our distance
Now I can't make you smile
But I still have hope
That I've got a while
Before you completely let go
But this love was doomed from the start
In this tale of karma hearts
You hurt me
And I hurt you in tact
We fell apart
And you never looked back
And you never looked back
