Farewell
Bye bye
Sorry look in your eye
Doesn't mean a thing
So long
We shared beds
Now it comes to an end
With such a saddened eye
Cause I've heard stories
Ugly stories
And no one can deny
They were true
They were true
And while I was away
You were working
Every day
So it seemed
Phone calls
Regrets
Everyone placed bets
On odds I couldn't see
Cause I've heard stories
Ugly stories
No one can deny
And I've heard stories
Ugly stories
And no one can deny
They were true
They were true
They were true
They were true
Believe in your doubts
Cause I found out
You can never
Trust in anyone
Here in the South
I call you out
You can never
Trust in anyone
At least not for long
Next time
You're in town
Don't bother coming round
You're not welcome anymore
Unfair
So unkind
That I wasted my time
On such a silly dream
Cause I've heard stories
Ugly stories
And no one can deny
And I've heard stories
They're ugly stories
And no one can deny
They were true
They were true
They were true
They were true
