I was your big man I was your prince charming
King on a white horse hey now look how far I’ve fallen
I tried to trick you yeah but baby you got wise
You cut me cut me right right down to size
Now I’m just a fool in Gloria’s eyes
Swore I’d get you back I was so sure
I’d get you back life I done so many times before
A little sweet talk to cover over all of the lies
You came runnin’ back but to my surprise
Well there was somethin’ gone in Gloria’s eyes [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/bruce_springsteen/glorias_eyes.html ]
Well in the dark when it was just me and you
I asked the question that I knew the answer to
Is that a smile my little dolly on the shelf
Tell me is that a smile
Or is it somethin’ else ?
Now I work hard to prove my love is true
Now I work hard and I bring it on home to you
At night I pray as silently you lie
Some day my love again will rise
Like a shining torch in Gloria’s eyes
I was your big man I was your prince charming
King on a white horse now look how far I’ve fallen
