Gain some then you lose for sure, over and over
The sunset fades you close the door, goodbye again
You feel like a fool, don't we all
Slide to the bottom, laugh when she calls

I know I said I loved you, I don't know if that was true
I think I said it for myself and never thought of you
It doesn't help to admit defeat, brings no resolution leaves you alone on the street

Broken heart to peace of mind
Get up buddy hold your head up high
Always looking for what you can't find
Leave it all behind

I'll leave you now, I've seen you enough in my dreams
I'm headed out of Grand Forks, starting clean
The sun rises over the lake and I feel free, it's a choice that I've made"
