The Slow One Lyrics by Brinsley Schwarz

Despite it All

1970

[Verse 1]
We have nothing
To say to each other
You go your way
And I'll go mine
I was your friend
You were my lover
We made the same mistakes
Too many times
[Verse 2]
Just like tomorrow
We were divided
You on your side
And me on mine
Lovely lady
Of the wildwind
May our branches
Still intertwine
[Bridge]
I had a little too much of your thing
And a little too much of mine
Darlin' I'm all for sharing, really
But your half was much bigger than mine
[Verse 3]
Save your money baby
Save your time
I 'spose we'd both better go find a brand new line
Oh and back round the corner is a love with no face
And it keeps on repeating
Come on, Come on
Oh la la, la la la la (x2)
[Verse 4]
We have nothing
To say to each other
You go your way
And I'll go mine
I was your friend
You were my lover
We made the same mistakes
Too many times
