Common Thief

Look at me now
See where I've been
It ain't very pretty down on bitter end
The one I was for
Just wasn't for me
She thought she could steal love that belonged to me
And if that's your belief
Then you're no better than a common thief - uh huh
If that's your belief
You're no better than a common thief - uh huh
Look at me now
Don't turn away
You see I'm the same as I was just the other day
I was for you
But you just used me
You thought you could steal love that belonged to me
And if that's your belief
Then you're no better than a common thief - uh huh
If that's your belief
Then you're no better than a common thief - uh huh
Look at me now
See where I've been
It ain't very pretty down on bitter end
The one I was for
Well, she just wasn't for me
She thought she could steal love that belonged to me
And if that's your belief
Then you're no better than a common thief - alright
If that's your belief
You're no better than a common thief - uh huh
