                 HONEY, DON'T YOU DARE

Honey, don't you dare complain
'bout how he's caused you pain
and now you know you should have stayed with me

I could've told you way back then
you and he would end
before too long I knew that he would set you free

     Honey, don't you dare come cryin' at my doorstep
     hopin' it'll make me weak
     Just because he left you feelin' sad and lonely
     you think you'll come back to me
     Well I know that it's a game and I've heard the sayin'
     "all in love is fair"
     But don't tell me your sad, sad story
     Honey, don't you dare

You're wonderin' if your heart will heal
Well I know how you fell
I've felt the same way once or twice not long ago

You told me that you had to leave
So now I can't believe
You have the nerve to say you want to come back home

     Honey, don't you dare come cryin' at my doorstep
     hopin' it'll make me weak
     Just because he left you feelin' sad and lonely
     you think you'll come back to me
     Well I know that it's a game and I've heard the sayin'
     "all in love is fair"
     But don't tell me your sad, sad story
     Honey, don't you dare

     Honey, don't you dare come cryin' at my doorstep
     hopin' it'll make me weak
     Just because he left you feelin' sad and lonely
     you think you'll come back to me
     Well I know that it's a game and I've heard the sayin'
     "all in love is fair"
     But don't tell me your sad, sad story
     Honey, don't you dare
