The Gentle Souls
I cut the rope and threw her out Out on the street like a garbage sack And every day she's calling me up I don't see why she'd wanna come back Knocking on her best friend's door "Is it okay if I crash here?" She never had a fighting chance Guess the hearts of former holds 'Cause she didn't know what she'd gotten into She belongs with the gentle souls There was a time I can't recall When I believed everything I said And I kept playing before it all built up The petty lies that she was fed Looking for a stranger, still I don't know who I should marry She never had a fighting chance I guess the hearts of former holds 'Cause she didn't know what she'd gotten into She belongs with the gentle souls SongtexteI cut the rope and threw her out And changed the lock on my front door She tried her key and it didn't work I don't know why she's back for more Knocking on her best friend's door "Is it okay if I crash here?" She never had a fighting chance I guess the hearts of former holds 'Cause she didn't know what she'd gotten into Now she belongs with the gentle souls Now she belongs with the gentle souls She never had a fighting chance Aus Songtexte Mania
