Taylor, Joanne Shaw - Tried, Tested & True lyrics

You loosen your mouth Your lips and your tongue And go tripping over tales of a future Where I don't belong With every touch of treason And every sleight of hand You're falling deeper in the pretense That I care or understand You rolled me over And sold me out I've been struck down There goes that girl You said was just a friend I wish for you that I was sweeter I was weaker Could ignore or pretend For you I'm just a past time A means to an end To me you're just another lover I can't defend or depend You rolled me over And sold me out I've been struck down You loosen your mouth Your lips and your tongue And go tripping over tales of a future Where I don't belong You sold me on the romance You claimed was my fate A sweet, subtle story I'm still trying to escape You rolled me over And sold me out I've been struck down I've been struck down I've been struck down
