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.
