Sam Roberts Band - FIEND Lyrics

Another day
Try to get it right
Find a way through the firefight
In the meantime keep your shit tight
On the breadline keep your spirits high

(I won't give you up
I'm a fiend for love)

The carousel, almost lifelike
Take the unicorn, I'll take the motorbike
A wishing well could be our goldmine
Throw your money in - we'll make the sun shine

I'm sure you've heard it before
You think I'm a wolf at the door
But you know what I've wanted
Want to let go but I'm haunted

I'm a lost cause baby and I can't stop sinking
But I still want more
In a free fall baby cause I can't stop thinking 'bout
Everything I had before
Never turn your back on love - it's a crime
Forever you'll be in my heart and on my mind

Throw your mind back again
Two of a kind, I remember when
At the start, we were only kids
Some fall apart but we never did

In love, forever at war
It's all the same for the rich and the poor
I know where to find you
And I don't need to remind you

Take it on faith, it's how it's gonna stay
Never gonna fade, never gonna fade no
Everything we made, everything we saved
Everything we gave up, everything we paid for
It can never fade even if it changes
Live another day, remember what you give for
Turn another page, buy a different name
The story is the same - you're everything I live for

(I won't give you up
I'm a fiend for love)

Now and then, if we fall apart
Don't let the venom near your beating heart
It takes a lifetime to know who we are
If you're the sunshine I'm a black star

In love, forever at war
It's all the same for the rich and the poor
But I know where to find you
And I don't need to remind you

I'm a lost cause baby and I can't stop sinking
But I still want more
In a free fall baby cause I can't stop thinking 'bout
Everything I had before
You're the queen of the Southpaws
Comin' out swinging but I'm still coming back for more
In a freefall baby cause I can't stop thinking 'bout
Everything I had before
Never turn your back on love - it's a crime
Forever you'll be in my heart and on my mind
Never turn your back on love - it's a crime
Forever you'll be in my heart and on my mind
