True Story Lyrics by Tom Verlaine

Words from the Front

0

I'm so so sorry, so sorry
For those cold, cold remarks
I don't know what came over me
Please forgive me

It is a love never planned
Remaining close to the matter at hand
It is a love never planned
Remaining close to the matter at hand
The matter at hand
At hand

Shining hours
Shining hours
Running home, riding home
What is the use?
What's the use of making chain?
What's the use of making chain?
Let's go home

It is a love, not a plan
Remaining close to the matter at hand
It is a love, not a plan
Remaining close to the matter at hand
The matter at hand

It is a love, not a plan
Remaining close to the matter at hand
It is a love, not a plan
Remaining close to the matter at hand
