Same Old Sad Affair Lyrics
Oh, I recall I once held your hand
You couldn’t live without being with me
Love for us, sweet like a child
Never got wild in despair
I recall the look in your eyes
Didn’t disguise how it seems from here
Now it’s gone, it crumbled away
Slowly it turned to tears
It’s just the same old sad affair
Well I tried and I tried, gets me nowhere
Get the same old sad affair
Don’t let it happen, happen - no
I recall how you played the game
After a while, it just wasn’t the same
Break away, you turned around
Go with the sound alone
And never know which way to go
I never get what I want
Endless nights talking with you
Nothing resolved, nothing was new
I recall blame laid in wait
I took the chance to run
You couldn’t live without being with me
Love for us, sweet like a child
Never got wild in despair
I recall the look in your eyes
Didn’t disguise how it seems from here
Now it’s gone, it crumbled away
Slowly it turned to tears
Well I tried and I tried, gets me nowhere
Get the same old sad affair
Don’t let it happen, happen - no
After a while, it just wasn’t the same
Break away, you turned around
Go with the sound alone
And never know which way to go
I never get what I want
Nothing resolved, nothing was new
I recall blame laid in wait
I took the chance to run
