Florence Welch - Old Flames lyrics

[Verse 1 - Frank Turner] I went down to London town to stay for the weekend I'd been too long out on the road, I needed to catch up with my friends But I didn't expect to see your there, and I didn't expect to care And I said, "oh, honey, if I had known How the weekend would go And just how low I could go, I would have stayed away" [Verse 2 - Billy The Kid] I went back to town to pack my things and say goodbye But I got talked in to going for a drink, and one drink became a night If I'd known that you were around, I wouldn't have gone down And I said "oh honey, if I could have seen Where this weekend would lead And seen the wreckage I'd leave, I would have stayed away" [Bridge - Frank Turner] And I always knew it was a bad idea And I always knew that I should just steer clear I slipped up on a couple of months and a couple of beers I'd like to fall in love again But we're no good at being friends It's just s** with the ex and the morning regrets But do you remember back when we were young and unformed It was all so much easier to give of yourself, to fall in love Yeah but as we get older and set in our ways, we harden our hearts But on nights like these it can seem so much simpler To simply forget why we ever grew apart [Verse 3 - Billy The Kid] I don't really know what you were thinking Do you even think at all? Car crash in slow motion the way that we falled into bed I don't really know what I was drinking I don't usually drink at all I woke up with the hotel bill and an ache in my head [Both - Outro] I'd love to fall in love again We're no good at being friends It's just s** with the ex and the morning regrets And oh! Honey, it won't be the same Oh! Honey, we'll never change We're drawn back into the flame When we both, both should have stayed, stayed away
