M. Lockwood Porter - Menelaus Lyrics




I'd never seen a woman quite like you
With hair of golden brown and eyes so sad and blue
From the moment I first kissed you, I knew you'd leave me dry
But it never really hit me until the walls fell

You told me once you'd never met an honest man
I wasn't lying when I told you, I'll try the best I can
But you still picked up and sailed away with the first guy that came around
Well I chased you like a dog, and then the walls fell

Was it revenge or was it love that sent me round the globe?
I held my knife above you, and then you opened up your robe
Some folks have called it tragic. Well, I just wanted what I couldn't have
And held on to hope too long, and then the walls fell

Now I've got to make my lonely way back home
I fought for ten long years I got scars and broken bones
Even as I stood there watching Troy burn to the ground
I knew that you weren't coming home the day the walls fell

Sir, I can't blame you for what you done
I know the way that she can make you feel, and I hope you've had some fun
But I'm warning you, it's hard to hold on to someone that's never had a home
She didn't even flinch when the walls fell
