Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I remember when my heart caught the fever
You were standin' all alone in the summer heat
I was with my boyfriend, my new boyfriend
He was as sweet as he could be
[Verse 2]
One look at you and I was through
My heart switched up on me
[Verse 3]
Like a postcard from Paris
When I've seen the real thing
It's like findin' out your diamond
Is from her old promise ring
[Verse 4]
A callback from your fortune teller
She read your cards upside down
The meanest thing you ever did
Is come around
[Verse 5]
And now I'm ruined (Yeah, yeah)
I'm ruined
[Verse 6]
In the evenin' you can catch me daydreamin'
Did that moment send you reelin' just like me?
I should have gone over, right over
I should have never let you leave
[Verse 7]
But it's the never knowing that keeps this going
And drives me crazy
[Verse 8]
Like a postcard from Paris
When I've seen the real thing
It's like findin' out your diamond
Is from her old promise ring
[Verse 9]
A callback from your fortune teller
She read your cards upside down
The meanest thing you ever did
Is come around
[Verse 10]
Just when I thought things were alright
My eyes played tricks on my mind, yeah
Will I ever be satisfied?
'Cause all I ever seem to find is a
[Verse 11]
Postcard from Paris
When I need the real thing
It's like findin' out your diamond
Is from an old promise ring
[Verse 12]
A callback from your fortune teller
She read your cards upside down
The meanest thing you ever did
The cruelest thing you ever did
The meanest thing you ever did
Is come around
[Verse 13]
I am ruined (Yeah, yeah)
I'm ruined (Yeah, yeah)
Now I am ruined, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
I am ruined (Yeah, yeah)
