You have been through this before, the very same old song is playing and you are dancing the same moves The same words have been spoken, you are still reacting the same old way Yes you have been through this before, and nothing has changed. They looked at your helplessness, they saw the waters gather speed in your eyes making ready As they rushed down your cheeks, they looked away and washed then not away Naked as you were, no one dared to cover you up. Words were spoken, promises made, hope given, faith instilled, a better tomorrow promised Yes, they heard them, they watched as you delved deeper into their web of lies And smiled at their expertise in the ways of the tongue. Showers of love they seemed, yet only a tenderizer for the next hard landing Never softer, nor sweeter, ever damaging, heart breaking But You have been through this before, the very same old song is playing and you are dancing the same moves.

Tears of a lonely woman (Prt 1)
You have been through this before, the very same old song is playing and you are dancing the same moves The same words have been spoken, you are still reacting the same old way Yes you have been through this before, and nothing has changed. They looked at your helplessness, they saw the waters gather speed in your eyes making ready As they rushed down your cheeks, they looked away and washed then not away Naked as you were, no one dared to cover you up. Words were spoken, promises made, hope given, faith instilled, a better tomorrow promised Yes, they heard them, they watched as you delved deeper into their web of lies And smiled at their expertise in the ways of the tongue. Showers of love they seemed, yet only a tenderizer for the next hard landing Never softer, nor sweeter, ever damaging, heart breaking But You have been through this before, the very same old song is playing and you are dancing the same moves.
