lyrics

As I look into those drunken eyes I see behind those well meant lies
You tell me what I want to hear there's nothing left for me to fear
My mind my mind is so unkind I'm glad it's as little yours as mine
Not kept within some sacred book those words I said which you mistook
For honesty when the thought was greed when selfishness is all I need
I think I think I think it's true, I don't deserve it as much as you

Like some old blues record I'm in love with a friends girlfriend
I'm as much in love as I've been in love which is never in love before
And like some old blues record I'm gonna have to cry a little more

If I'm asked what's behind those eyes I won't repeat it I will lie
For what I thought you confirmed was true what you say is a corrupted truth
It's not your fault no more than mine the same desire but I see behind
Whatever use you put it to I will not follow the path you choose
There's nothing wrong and nothing right so I'll take my leave and say goodnight
What you say isn't what you do and I don't deserve it as much as you

Like some old blues record I'm in love with a friends girlfriend
I never wanted to be and though I try I know that it won't end
I'm as much in love as I've been in love which is never in love before
And like some old blues record I'm gonna have to cry a little more
