PastaJoe Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Just an old fashioned love song playing on the radio And wrapped around the musicĀ Is the sound of someone promising they'll never go You swear you've heard it before As it slowly rambles on No need in bringing 'em back 'Cause they've never really gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DD4Bills Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Don't think me unkind Words are hard to find They're only cheques I've left unsigned From the banks of chaos in my mind Ā And when their eloquence escapes me Their logic ties me up and rapes me Ā De do do do, de da da da Is all I want to say to you De do do do, de da da da Their innocence will pull me through De do do do, de da da da Is all I want to say to you De do do do, de da da da They're meaningless and all that's true 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
