Just a Ride

There’s traffic on the northern line

We say goodbye the final time

Pretend that we meant something more than this

When the memories you left behind

Remind me you were never mine

The lonely train you left without a kiss

The golden girl, the silver spoon

The eyes like pearls that wept too soon

Haunt me up until the day I die

I climb aboard the sinking ship

Biting on my bottom lip

And wait for time to heal my pride

But time was never on my side

Me and you were just a ride

You and me were just a ride

Seven weeks have come to pass

I stumble on the photograph

To see the lucky man to take my place

Cloak and dagger from the start

You twist the knife into my heart

Watch my eyes bleed tracks upon my face

Me who lost the will to live

When you who lost the will to give

Taking with the little left inside

I climb aboard the sinking ship

Biting on my bottom lip

And wait for time to heal my pride

But time was never on my side

Me and you were just a ride

Me and you were just a ride

Me and you were just a ride

You lied, you lied, you lied, you liar

You lied, you lied, you lied, you liar

You lied, you lied, you lied, you liar

You lied, you lied, you lied, you liar

The golden girl, the silver spoon

The eyes like pearls that wept too soon

Haunt me up until the day I die

I climb aboard the sinking ship

Biting on my bottom lip

And wait for time to heal my pride

I’ll love you ‘til the day I die

Me and you were just a ride
