Look into my eyes;
Do I look like the dangerous type?
You'd never tell by these small hands.
Driven by desire
And burning up with a jealous pride,
I took what was not mine to have.
My whole life began
On the day that he learned my name.
He said I was his only love,
But with each passing day
His love for me began to fade.
My whole life just came undone.
Well, he said he loved another
And I said, "But I love you still,
And if I can't hold you in my arms
Then nobody will."
No one's dragging the river.
No one's calling out the law.
No one's really gonna miss him.
No one even knows that he's gone.
Nobody knows just what I've done,
Knows what I've done.
I said, "Baby take me for a ride
For the very last time.
That Mississippi Bridge is seven stories tall."
I did not watch him
But I listened to him fall
And I'd swear that rolling muddy water
Sounds just like a concrete wall.
No one's dragging the river.
No one's calling out the law.
No one's really gonna miss him.
No one even knows that he's gone.
Nobody knows just what I've done,
Knows what I've done.
