Day by day, you saw her under golden leaves She was holding on to what she thought was
real Nothing but your love could make her strong
A little did she know of what went wrong His hands were strong, his hair was long
He could not slip, Susie thought a stronger love could not exist
Nothing but his love could make her strong A little did she know of what went wrong
She don't need no love song, she just got the wrong one
She just got to open up her eyes and see those lies
She's burning out her life
The day had gone, the night was long She was on her own
Susie found her prince had flown She had lost her home
Nothing but her dreams were left behind A little did she know the reason why
Who's getting hurt now? Who's losing everything she's got?
And who's been the fool for you?
Who's getting hurt now? Who's losing everything she's got?
And who's been the fool for you?
And who's been the fool for you?
And who's been the fool for you?
And who's been the fool for you?
By day you saw her under golden leaves She was holding on to what she thought was real
Nothing but your love could make her strong A little did she know of what went wrong
She don't need no love song, she just got the wrong one
She just got to open up her eyes and see those lies
She's burning out her life
She's burning out her life
