Ian Hunter - Sons N' Lovers lyrics

(ian hunter) I was your baby-you were my girl When i asked you to marry me- the tears fell Sons n' lovers, sons n' lovers, waving My childhood goodbye-it seems so sad Well how long have you been my best friend This won't be the end of Sons n' lovers-sons n' lovers--she won't wanna talk anymore about it You were my lady- i was your number one When i said i was leaving- tears run Sons n' lovers-sons n' lovers, breakin' Tryin' not to hurt each others hearts Well how long can we exist- i know We can't go on like this Sons n' lovers-son's and lovers--i don't wanna lie anymore Was that you i saw--walkin' out along the shore Was that you i saw-talkin' to him Was that you i saw-puttin' his hands in yours Thats alright ma- you can still love him Thats alright ma- you can still love And through the years-you know- we will remember Time will never take old times away How long for you to discover that- there still some strings attached to Sons n' lovers-sons and lovers But i don't wanna play anymore Sons n' lovers
