Sharon Ridley - You Sold Me a One Way Ticket

You sold me a one way ticket to love,
Like a fool I thought I'd found
Someone to build my world around.
But it was a one way ticket to love,
'Cause you left me stranded there
Without even a dream to spare.

How sweet and thoughtful you were at the start,
So sweet your warm affection touched my heart,
So deep my better judgement fell apart.

And the power of your words
Filled my heart with ecstacy.
And I gave in to desire,
And I let you make love to me,
I let you make love to me.

You sold me a one way ticket to love,
Like a fool I thought I'd found
Someone to build my world around.
But it was a one way ticket to love,
'Cause you left me stranded there
Without even a dream to spare.

I still recall the words you said to me
About how happy you and I would be,
You swore you'd love me till eternity.

And the power of your words
Filled my heart with ecstacy.
And I gave in to desire,
And I let you make love to me,
I let you make love to me.

You sold me a one way ticket to love,

Filled my heart with ecstacy.
And I gave in to desire,

I let you make love to me.

You sold me a one way ticket,
A one way ticket to love,
Like a fool I thought I'd found
Someone to build my whole world around.
It was a one way ticket to love,
'Cause you left me stranded there
Without even a dream to spare.

A one way ticket to love,
Like a fool I thought I'd found
Someone to build my world around.

Without even a dream to spare.

Yeah, one way ticket to love,
Like a fool I thought I'd found
