Switchblade Memories

It’s Friday morning, 3 AM
The crowds have all gone home
It’s just you and I
We’re up on our own
We could go to bars
Talk to friends and lovers
That we lost so long ago
And I won’t cry
If you don’t cry
No, I won’t cry
If you don’t cry
You shake your fist at your God in the sky
You make a wish but your well ran dry
It’s just a story that you read in a book
Come on now, take another look
It’s just a lie
A story at bedtime
It helps you get by
Love is sorrow
Love is pain
How I long for loves sweet refrain
But two’s a crowd
And I’m a fool
Tomorrows dreams
They’ll never, never call
For you and I
But I won’t cry
So don’t you cry
No I won’t cry
So don’t you cry
You shake your fist at your God in the sky
You make a wish but your well ran dry
It’s just a story that you read in a book
Come on now, take another look
It’s just a lie
A story at bedtime
It helps you get by
So put your switchblade away
You won’t cut me again
Baby don’t you even try
Cause I’m so down and so alone
But I won’t cry
So don’t you cry
No I won’t cry
If you don’t cry
You shake your fist at your God in the sky
You make a wish but your well ran dry
It’s just a story that you read in a book
Come on, come on, take another look
It’s just a lie
A story at bedtime
It helps you get by
It helps you get by
