Album: Tracks

(tracks version)
———————————————

Every day here you come walking
I hold my tongue, i don’t do much talking
You say you’re happy and you’re doin’ fine well go ahead, baby, i got plenty of time
Sad eyes never lie
Sad eyes never lie

Well for a while i’ve been watching you steady
Ain’t gonna move ’til you’re good and ready
You show up and then you shy away
But i know pretty soon you’ll be walkin’ this way
Sad eyes never lie
Sad eyes never lie

Baby don’t you know i don’t care
Don’t you know that i’ve been there
Well if something in the air feels a little unkind
Don’t worry darling, it’ll slip your mind

I know you think you’d never be mine
Well that’s okay, baby, i don’t mind
That shy smile’s sweet, that’s a fact
Go ahead, i don’t mind the act
Here you come all dressed up for a date
Well one more step and it’ll be too late
Blue blue ribbon in your hair
Like you’re so sure i’ll be standing here

(another version)
——————————————

’til the end
Just me and you baby
Just me and you girl
And i remember you even back then
And i remember you from back then
And i remember back then that i swore that for you i’d drive all night
Anytime, anyplace
That for you i’d drive all night
Anytime, anyplace
That for you i’d drive all night
Anytime, anyplace
That for you i’d drive all night
Through the wind
Through the rain
Through the snow
Just to buy you some shoes
Just to check you out
Just to kiss that pretty face
Just to taste your tender charms
Just to sleep
Just to sleep
In your arms

Babe, maybe you wasn’t even listening
Maybe you wasn’t even listening
But i remember you promised that you’d never go anyplace without me
You swore that you’d never go anyplace without me
You promised that you’d never leave without me
You swore that you’d never leave without me
And like everything else
And everybody else from back then you promised
And baby you lied
Baby you lied
Baby you lied
Baby you lied
Little girl you lied

So now you’ve come back
So now you’ve come back
So now you’ve come back
But just what makes you think that it’s so easy
Just what makes you think
That it’s so easy
Just to stop
To stop
To stop
To stop
To stop
To stop
To stop
To stop
To stop
To stop
To stop
To stop
To stop

Hiding on the backstreets
