Yet another collab with MonnoDB, we are turning into a great team
This time Karen wrote the song and did the vocals and I provided arrangement/playing and production.
As always we had great fun doing it.

Verse 1
Do you remember the words you said
The hurt they caused, and the fears they fed
When nobody mattered to you but you
My best deeds would never do
Verse 2
Do you remember the casual way
You passed off insults that would stay
Embedded in my self esteem
They served their purpose it seems
Chorus
Now your smiles belie the truth
This current version is a kinder you
I loved you then though you made it hard
Don't play it now don't play that card
Don't play that card, don't play that card
Verse 3
Do you remember the way you pushed
For what you wanted in name of us
Justification an excuse away
Just an excuse away
Verse 4
Do you remember how you stole my pain
Took my story made it yours and then
Came for comfort to my grieving head
Refused to hear the words I said
Chorus
Now your smiles belie the truth
This current version is a kinder you
I loved you then though you made it hard
Don't play it now don't play that card
Don't play that card, don't play that card
Bridge
Make me understand
Why so underhand
Does it make a better tale
If dishonesty prevails
Chorus
Now your smiles belie the truth
This current version is a kinder you
I loved you then though you made it hard
Don't play it now don't play that card
Don't play that card, don't play that card
