Wolf

you said you were coming back
but you didn't change direction
I've waited long enough
you cried wolf once too much

no response to multimedia
as I slowly attenuate
if you finally respond
I forgot the question

it was probably just a ploy
another sleight of hand
the ante is much to rich
anyway, what could it matter

I couldn't change your heart
I couldn't change your mind
love makes many a fool
and I was one for you

you said you were coming back
no response to multimedia
it was probably just a ploy
I couldn't change your heart
