This is my favourite song
The list
When this song became my favourite song
I wrote the list it sat on top
For weeks it pushed the others down down
But i never reached the bottom of the list
And i would cry and cry
Cause it would lie and lie
And i would cry and cry
Cause it would lie and lie
Fast forward one month
When this song became my favourite song
I wrote that list with it on top
For weeks it pushed my favourite song down
Second third and fifth
But i never reached the end of that list
Time has torn that list to pieces i know
And i would cry and cry
Cause it had lied and lied
And i would cry and cry
Cause it had lied and lied
Why did that song have to lie to me
Why couldn't it be just another
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
For years i put my faith in print
As if the truth could be discovered there
My list could hold my soul intact
Like paintings like
Photographs
Why did my song have to lie to me
Why couldn't it be just another
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
It was the wrong song as long as this went on
I never should have put my favourite song on the list
I never should have put my favourite song on the list
I never should have put my favourite song on the list
I never should have put my favourite song on the list
I never should have put my favourite song on the list
I never should have put my favourite song on the list
I never should have put my favourite song on the list
