So Tired

Scent on a postcard

A memory left behind

Warm hand, cool look but no time...

Winsome lose some

Hung up on old flame

My heart depends on fire

So who am I to make demands on love?

"...Relax and walk on by"

So tired

So tired

Beaten like a drum

So tired

Living life alone

So tired

Beaten like a drum

Kiss the right faces

And tap the party line

Short measure of cheap skate pleasure

Easier said than done

Sip the night water

But not too drunk to say

Well just who am I to ever hope to love you?

I'd turn and shy away

So tired

So tired

Beaten like a drum

So tired

Living life alone

So tired

Beaten like a drum

Once upon a bed

You said you loved me

Once upon a bed

Those eyes of blue

Now what am I supposed to do?

So tired -

So tired

Beaten like a drum

So tired

Live my life alone, so alone

Once upon a bed

You said you loved me

Once upon a bed

Those eyes of blue

And what am I to rhyme with 'you'?

Now I lie alone and so defenceless

Dream of love in sunny daze with you

So tired...
