Lyrics
David Denies
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's what he wants but he won't say
he'd rather make-believe I want to say goodbye
It's down to her although I know
she never made him happy now she makes him cry
*** Verse 2:
He cannot work he cannot think
beyond the guilt he has for leaving her alone
I'm going down I cannot breathe
he doesn't think to leave me anything at all
*** Chorus:
David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)
*** Verse 3:
It's what he wants I'm almost sure
and I can hardly stand him saying it's not so
and so I'll wait and so I'll hope
somehow I can convince him not to let me go
*** Chorus:
David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)
*** Instrumental Verse:
David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)
David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)
and so I'll wait and so I'll hope
somehow I can convince him
and so I'll wait and so I'll hope
somehow I can convince him not to let me go
