It"s a string of broken hearts
Deadwood drifting down the stream
Worn out boots beside the highway
A bygone scheme
The cigarette in the ashtray
A love affair grown cold
Hallucinations of the past
I"m much too young to feel that old.
She said "Tell me that you love me still"
He said "I have to think about that for a while"
She said "Look at me like you used to"
He said "I"ve forgot how to smile"
There"s a feeling in my gut
Makes me wanna shout and cry
So many things in life
That make me wanna die
All you are to me are lies
To impress elusive friends
All I am to you is based
Upon a lie of who I am.
She said "Tell me that you love me still"
He said "I have to think about that for a while"
She said "Look at me like you used to"
He said "I"ve forgot how to smile"
The more I think, the more I drink
Of Faces that drift by
In the ripples of the past
Sometimes I ask myself why
And what the hell I was thinkin"
When I hooked up with you
And you should ask yourself the exact same question
But you never seem to do
She said "Tell me that you love me still"
He said "I have to think about that for a while"
She said "Look at me like you used to"
He said "I"ve forgot how to smile"
It"s a string of broken hearts
Deadwood drifting down the stream
Worn out boots beside the highway
A bygone scheme
Just a foolish dream.
