Haley's Reckless Choice

Well, I thought we had it all figured out,

Under the stars, no room for doubt.

But now you're chasing shadows in the night,

And I'm left here tryin' to fight.

Haley, sweet Haley, you were my shining light,

But you traded my love for a puncher's might.

He’s got a rough edge, they say he’s a man,

But he don’t know the value of a gentle hand.

You wanted the wild, the thrill in your veins,

Chose the storm over sweet summer rain.

You gave up the gold, the heart that was true,

For a cheap shot and a broken view.

You're running to the man who breaks the doors,

While I was loving you like never before.

I made you my world, oh, how could you go,

For a fist that’s got force, but no heart to show?

Haley, sweet Haley, in your reckless dance,

You traded romance for a fool's chance.

He’s got a wild spirit, don’t follow the rules,

While I’m left here, feeling like a fool.

You spent all our days wrapped in his arms,

While I sat here dreaming of us, my heart warms.

I’d have walked through fire, I’d have taken the pain,

But your heart’s grown cold, and I’m scarred by the rain.

You think you found magic in a reckless embrace,

But I know the truth—there’s no love in his space.

You're running to the man who breaks the doors,

While I was loving you like never before.

I made you my world, oh, how could you go,

For a fist that’s got force, but no heart to show?

Haley, sweet Haley, in your reckless dance,

You traded romance for a fool's chance.

So here’s to the nights when our love filled the air,

But you threw it away, like you didn’t care.

Haley, sweet Haley, it's sad but true,

I'm left with a heart that still beats for you.
