about

The first song from my album 'tenement turmoil'...
For the pretenders among us

lyrics

When I met you at the station,
We were on the final run.
Our love was on the final stretch,
When you fired the starting gun.
You placed your arms around me,
When I told you to refrain.
Then I grabbed you by your open hand
As you missed your final train

Message received no need for a letter
You better believe I couldn't feel better
You have to agree
That we spend more time as friends than lovers should
and now well never be the same

When your love was taken from me.
I had nowhere else to go
I travelled round for hours and hours
When you somehow let me know
I put my finger on the screen
and when I opened it I seen
Your picture with some other guy
and another broken dream

Message received no need for a letter
You better believe I couldn't feel better
You have to agree
That we spend more time as friends than lovers should
and now well never be the same

Message received no need for a letter
You better believe I couldn't feel better
You have to agree
That we spend more time as friends than lovers should
and now well never be the same
