You've been lonesome and complaining Someone gets you a blind date You've been worried about it all night long How you gonna rate? But turns out she's an angel But you're too dumb to speak Well she turns to leave, you can't believe You didn't even kiss her on the cheek That's how you ruin a romance It's easy but it's true That's how you ruin a romance And end up dating the blues Well you made a stack of dollars You were on a winning streak You're throwing toga parties Acting like a sheikh Then you're italian girlfriend says she's tired You tell your driver to take her home Now they're married with three children Own a restaurant back in Rome That's how you ruin a romance It's easy but it's true That's how you ruin a romance And end up dating the blues Well you're gulping down martinis She's slowly sipping wine Her eyes are sending shivers Up and down your spine She asks you to play some music You feel like a rock 'n' roll star But thirty minutes later You're still tuning your guitar That's how you ruin a romance It's easy but it's true That's how you ruin a romance And end up dating the blues That's how you ruin a romance But you already knew How to ruin a romance I guess I ruined it with you
