Feet of Clay by Judy Banker

What I wouldn’t give to live
Without doing what I did to you
I hurt you I know
Played dirty I know
Said it’s not true
When I know it is

What I wouldn’t give to live without
Setting you up for a fall
Should’ve stayed true instead
Of losing my head
And making a mess of it all

Well, I didn’t care
Went in for the dare
Covered up with a plausible line
Now you’re turning away
And I don’t see a day
I won’t rue that damn alibi

That you don’t believe
And you will not be with
A girl who can’t look you in the eye
Even though I would give the world to live
Without making you cry.

Ch)
And the breeze blows steady
South across the bay
And my heart lies heavy
As I replay that day
My feet of clay
You slippin’ away
You slippin’ away

Now when you look my way
All you see are shades
Of the past and what I did to you
What’s done now is done
I’ll soon become
A bad card you once drew

Before you say we’re through
Let me try to undo
And make right of a stupid wrong
Cuz you know I would give the world to live
Without letting you down

Ch)
And the breeze blows steady
South across the bay
And my heart lies heavy
As I replay that day
My feet of clay
You slippin’ away
You slippin’ away
