Old Friends Lyrics by String Driven Thing

Keep Yer ’And On It

0

You say you will love me, I say you will never
You acted so cleverly
Making believe you meant it, I can't find my senses
Caught in a no man's kind of love
I wish you could be me, then maybe you might see
Just what I've been going through
I don't need your hard times, loving you was no crime
My music is still my truth

Barricades of a serious nature
A fine creator you turned out to be
With your barbed wire heartstrings
And need for belongings
What did you ever give me? Nothing

Sometimes it will hurt you, sometimes it deserts you
Lеaving you out on your own
Giving all the reasons, a man for all seasons
You livе your life all alone
Losing all my feelings and my head is reeling
Didn't leave me much scope
You thought you put me down here but I'm stuck in your hair
All I ever had was hope

Barricades of a serious nature
A fine creator you turned out to be
With your barbed wire heartstrings
And need for belongings
What did you ever give me? Nothing at all
Didn't give me nothing
Oh you just gave me pain, yeah
Yes you did, yes you did

Now I've found a meaning, finished all my scheming
Looking for somebody else
No more bad emotions, I'll leave you to your notions
You can stay up on your shelf
You say you will love me, I say you will never
You acted so cleverly

You say you will love me, I say you will never
You acted so cleverly
You say you will love me, I say you will never
You acted so cleverly
You say you will love me, I say you will never
You acted so cleverly
You say you will love me, I say you will never
You acted so cleverly
