Waited for you at the depot
With a bunch of flowers in my hand
I wore a clean shirt and shaved my beard
Had what I wanted to say all planned
But then you never showed up
And you never called me to say why
Maybe you had something better to do
Or you were with some other guy
And I say adios amiga
I never want to see you again
Adios amiga
Goodbye my fair-weather friend
Adios amiga
I thought that you were much better than this
Never thought of you as being unkind
Never thought that you would leave me flat
And put me out of your mind
I know that I am not perfect
And I can be a bitter pill
But was I ever so awful
That you would finally have your fill
I thought that you were sincere and true
But then I found out it was all talk
You were someone with some good intentions
But you were not someone to walk the walk
You may hold yourself in high regard
I know your friends and your family do
But they don't see what I see
And what I see is the real you
Maybe one day you will know what it's like
To be out here all alone
To know how it feels to need someone
And have them treat you like a stone
They might toss you in a river
They might crush you under their feet
Then you will feel how I feel
How it feels to be broken and beat
