You had their heart with just a dance
Had them crawling, yeah you made them think
Ah that they really had a chance
Down and alone
And never shown how
They ought to see you now
Yeah you were meant for only sunny days
You had the silver in your mouth
Ah but life has got a funny way
Of ripping all that silver out
Down and alone
And never shown how
They ought to see you now
Oh we loved those lips
And so fine hips
That you used to shake
Yeah you take what you could take
Yeah well maybe we're all better off this way
I heard about it from a friend of mine
He said they really did you in
Said you're hard enough to say you're fine
But it was written in your skin
Down and alone
And never shown how
Ah somehow
Yeah somehow
Ah somehow
They ought to see you now
You took their breath with just a little wink You had their heart with just a dance Had them crawling, yeah you made them think Ah that they really had a chance Down and alone And never shown how They ought to see you now Yeah you were meant for only sunny days You had the silver in your mouth Ah but life has got a funny way Of ripping all that silver out Down and alone And never shown how They ought to see you now Oh we loved those lips And so fine hips That you used to shake Yeah you take what you could take Yeah well maybe we're all better off this way I heard about it from a friend of mine He said they really did you in Said you're hard enough to say you're fine But it was written in your skin Down and alone And never shown how Ah somehow Yeah somehow Ah somehow They ought to see you now Explain Request ×
