Lyrics
Born Yesterday
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.
Won't talk about her, and who needs friends ?
Don't want them to wear you down
Like a rock in the ocean or glass in the sea
I know it's painful but it's true
I know one day this will make sense to you
Don't wear her clothes or even be seen
You know it has to be this way when you're the secret part of me
I know it's painful but it's true
I know one day this will make sense to you
You've got me running around and around
(and around and around and around)
You think tomorrow would never come
(and around and around)
You've got me running around and around
(and around and around)
You think i was born yesterday
Won't lie about these things you say, now this gets easier every day
Can't give you the child you so badly want or even mend your wounded love
I know it's painful but it's true
I know one day this will make sense to you
You've got me running around and around
(and around and around)
You think tomorrow would never come
(and around and around)
You've got me running around and around
(and around and around)
You think i was born yesterday
You've got me running around, oh yeah (2x)
You've got me running around, you've got me running around
I know it's painful but it's true
I know one day this will make sense to you
