I Gave Her Comfort
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.
To think that I'm the kind of guy
Whoever could have kept her
Would be taking too much credit on myself
And seeing us together you just knew
That she'd look better with somebody else
And now she's gone, no-one's surprised least of all not me
I always knew that I was just a comfort in her time of need
Just a comfort, just a comfort in her time
I gave her comfort in her time of need
Gave her comfort, gave her comfort in her time
I gave her comfort in her time of need
You knew that we had plans for San Francisco in September
But I didn't see California in her eyes
And by the end of summer, someone made a better offer
You know, I'm not surprised
And now she's gone, no-one's surprised least of all not me
I always knew that I was just a comfort in her time of need
Just a comfort, just a comfort in her time
I gave her comfort in her time of need
Gave her comfort, gave her comfort in her time
I gave her comfort in her time of need
Just a quick goodbye
Nobody's crying, no nobody's crying
I always knew that I was just a comfort
In her time of need
And now she's gone, no-one's surprised least of all not me
I always knew that I was just a comfort in her time of need
Just a comfort, just a comfort in her time
I gave her comfort in her time of need
Gave her comfort, gave her comfort in her time
I gave her comfort in her time of need
And now she's gone, no-one's surprised least of all not me
I always knew that I was just a comfort in her time of need
Just a comfort, just a comfort in her time
I gave her comfort in her time of need
Gave her comfort, gave her comfort in her time
I gave her comfort in her time of need
