Song Lyrics

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
