Ever since I met you

Mama said I should forget you

She said you were a waste of my sweet time

I wish I would have listened

Because now I'm sitting here wishin'

I never did believe in your sweet lies

You said you were the king of love

And I would be your queen

How come the good times are so few and far between?



Every night you leave me

I'm telling you it ain't been easy

Sitting here alone 'til 4 AM

If this is love then I don't want it

I'm gonna take this ring and pawn it

I'm walking out on you fast as I can

Ain't you the one who promised me peaches and cream?

How come the good times are so few and far between?



Chorus:

Few and far between

The good times that I've seen when I'm with you

Few and far between

And baby I do believe

It's time to pack up all my bags and hit the street

Few and far between



I got to find somebody

Who knows just how to love me

And baby I know for sure that it ain't you

You said you were the king of love

And I would be your queen

How come the good times are so few and far between?
