Everything We Had
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.
You were the only face I'd ever known
I was the light from the lamp on the floor
And only as bright as you wanted me to be
Well I am no gentleman
I can be a prick
And I do regret more than I admit
You have been followed
Back to same place
I sat with you drink for drink
Take the pain out of loving and love won't exist
Everything we had
Everything we had
Everything we had
Everything we had
Is no longer there
It was the only place I'd ever known
Turned off the light on my way out the door
I will be watching wherever you go
Through the eyes of a fly on the wall
You have been followed
Back to same place
I sat with you drink for drink
Take the pain out of loving and love won't exist
Everything we had
Everything we had
Everything we had
Everything we had
Is no longer there, longer there
Well you saw for yourself
The way it played out
For you I am lying dead
For you I am lying dead
For you
I am no gentleman
I can be a prick
And I do regret more than I admit
You have been followed
Back to same place
I sat with you drink for drink
Take the pain out of loving and love won't exist
(You have been followed) Everything we had
(You have been followed) Everything we had
(You have been followed) Everything we had
(You have been followed) Everything we had
(You have been followed) Everything we had
(You have been followed) Everything we had
(You have been followed) Everything we had
I'll be with you wherever you go
Through the eyes of a fly on the wall
