There’s traffic on the northern line We say goodbye the final time Pretend that we meant something more than this When the memories you left behind Remind me you were never mine The lonely train, you left without a kiss
The golden girl, the silver spoon The eyes like pearls that wept too soon Haunt me up until the day I die I climb aboard the sinking ship Biting on my bottom lip And wait for time to heal my pride But time was never on my side Me and you were just a ride
Seven weeks have come to pass I stumble on the photograph To see lucky man to take my place You were cloak and dagger from the start Twist the knife into my heart Watch my eyes bleed tracks upon my face
Me who lost the will to live You who lost the will to give Taking with the little left inside I climb aboard the sinking ship Biting on my bottom lip And wait for time to heal my pride But time was never on my side Me and you were just a ride
You lied, you lied, you lied, you liar
The golden girl the silver spoon The eyes like pearls that wept too soon Haunt me up until the day I die I climb aboard the sinking ship Biting on my bottom lip And wait for time to heal my pride I’ll love you ‘til the day I die Me and you were just a ride
