A little Catholic girl who's fallen in love
A face on a page, a gift from above
She should have known better than to give her heart
She should have known better than to ever part
Without me
Without me
I gave her everything that I ever owned
I think she understood but she never spoke
She shouldn't ought to try to be that way
She shouldn't have to go there ever again
Without me
Without me
Now listen to us good and listen well
Listen to us all and everything we tell
We should have known better than to give her away
We should have known better to this very day
Without me
Without me
Now listen Joan of Arc
All you have to do
Is say the right words and I'll be coming through
Hold you in my arms and take you right away
Now she's on her way to another land
We never understood why she gave her hand
She shouldn't ought to promise because it's just pretend
I know she doesn't mean it and she'll leave again
