Oh My Dear

Hey my Dear, don’t you cry for me
I was only using you like you were using me
Using me, like a puppet uses strings
Pull your hand and make me sing it’s still my favorite thing
Take it all, take everything, take it and go away
You were here and planting seeds and I’m still pulling weeds
And into the ocean lies, through your smoky eyes
A penny thought to be free
Because you don’t see what I feel
And everything comes around again
On a second flight through your satin light
You pin your name on my sleeve
And now we both know they’ll never be a better way to be
Velvet lips and fingertips floating on the waves
Diamond-edged impressions of intentions that were made
All the days gone by I still sit and think of you
And Honey your weary eyes are showing through your disguise
A penny thought to be free
Because you don’t see what I feel
And everything comes around again
On a second flight through your satin light
You pin your name on my sleeve
And now we both know they’ll never be a better way to be
Hey my dear, don’t you cry for me
I was only using you like you were using me
