New Cars and Cameras

New Cars and cameras New places to go Another man to comfort you When you’re feeling low Remember all the times we spent Sharing everything as one Watching sunsets on the beach Kissing n the fading sun I thought we were rock solid I thought that we would never part I trusted you with everything My dreams, my hopes, my heart. New cars and cameras New horizons to explore Another man to hold your hand But this man loves you more I feel broken and alone My life’s come off the tracks I can’t restore the love we had I can’t fill in the cracks Our bodies once they merged as one Our souls were intertwined I thought we’d found the perfect love But you left me behind New cars and cameras New stories to trade A love left on the back burner Cos it didn’t make the grade Don’t want to join the broken The beaten and the lost, Don’t want to be a memory, Don’t want to count the cost. I opened up my heart to you Now I can’t take this pain Love that blossomed in the sun Now washed up in the rain I gave you all I had to give But thats not enough it seems You traded love for money You shattered all my dreams New cars , new cameras Did I come up that short ? Can love that seemed so precious IBe so easily bought ? The colours have all seeped now Rainbows fade to grey If we can’t be together I can’t face each passing day New Cars and Cameras I will never understand How “bling” would be your thing And undo all we had planned I cannot say goodbye To my soulmate, my best friend I can’t put out the fire we lit So I’ll love you to the end.
