There's a mystery to what her love can do
And she has a way of taking over you
She can hold your heart with every move she makes
But a single smile is really all it takes

She'll make you forget the way life used to be
Because once you let her in, she will take your everything

Cause her name is always Elizabeth
And she'll take your heart away and apologize for breaking it
Just the same, love of any other kind
Would simply be a waste of time to me

She will tell me that her loves a day away
And there's something in her eyes that makes me stay
But her expectations are too great for me
So she'll leave me for the man I'll never be
She took all I had from beginning to end
But if I had another chance, I'd probably do it all again

Cause her name is always Elizabeth
And she'll take your heart away and apologize for breaking it
Just the same, love of any other kind
Would simply be a waste of time

The New York sky's finding me lonely in love tonight
This way I deal can't take away what is real
Or change how I feel

Cause her name is always Elizabeth
And she'll take your heart away and apologize for breaking it
Just the same, love of any other kind
Would simply be a waste of time

Cause her name is always Elizabeth
And she'll take your heart away and apologize for breaking it
Just the same, love of any other kind
Would simply be a waste of time
Love of any other kind
Would simply be a waste of time to me
