Another of my Scottish heartland epics
Hope you enjoy
Deadbeat lover
Stubby can of tennants
fill the train on a Wednesday
While thoughts of you skip my mind
Then scratch away at my brain
Like I had the free time of Sunday's
Never let me go
Never let you down
I'll be your deadbeat lover
I try not to dream too much
Just want to run away from fools
Bruises on your face ain't right
Blunt my mind and sharpen tools
I'll get you out, just not tonight
Never let me go
Never let you down
I'll be your deadbeat lover
Step on platforms, kids rushing out
Greeted in the typical pissing rain
By a warm embrace all the same
I wonder if I can do without you now
Let's not try it just cover our ground
Been to shell, your ride's here babe
Don't need to feel cold and alone
I'll let you shift from gear to gear
I've got the heater on, come on out
let me love you for all our years
Never let me go
Never let you down
I'll be your deadbeat lover
Grown old and tired, luck dies out
It all happened a little while back
Love thrives on old ambitions
Just seems to sleep during the day
This is our home, i'm here to stay
Never let me go
Never let you down
I'll be your deadbeat lover
