Just Stories

You’re talking about those times we had Like they were Shangri La days that you adored Like the meaning of life was so close But you’re just trying to soothe my wounds so raw

There were times when our blood was running hot Locked on eyes staring at the same dreams Oh yeah hey - you can talk it up - but they’re just stories now Yeah those snap-shots of happy faces - they’re just stories now You and me bathing under stars - they’re just stories now.

Yeah I meet you in the street and you smile You ask me how I’m doing like no wounds disfigure You’ve new guys enhancing life’s rich palette You’ve needed that so you pulled the trigger

Your hands smooth your pleated skirt Bet you ‘ve an engagement you’re rushing to I guess he’s heard about the good times we had And that I wasn’t quite right for you
