Like You Used To Lyrics by Mandolin Orange

Tides of a Teardrop

2019

[Verse 1]
Is there a reason in the things we say and shout at one another
We're three sheets to the wind and every word just pulls us under
All the dirt we’ve piled upon our layers of decay
Just love me, darlin', I think I can stay
[Chorus]
Love me like you used to do way back when
Before the rug was pulled beneath your feet
And you fell back in the saddle, left time standing still
And put all your troubles right on me
To say we've got your problems is an understated truth
But in your times of clarity I found the light in you
So when your skin’s crawlin' and that light begins to fade
Just love me, darlin', I think I can stay
Love me like you used to do way back when
[Verse 2]
If I could take your pain away, you'd never have to try
Maybe then, just maybe, we could lead a normal life
Freedom has new meaning tied to your ball and chain
Just love me, darlin', I think I can stay
[Chorus]
Love me like you used to do way back when
Before the rug was pulled beneath your feet
And you fell back in the saddle, left time standing still
And put all your troubles right on me
[Outro]
Just love me, darlin', I think I can stay
Just love me, darlin', I think I can stay
Just love me
