A Pair Of Old Sneakers

(Album: Together Again - 1980)

We're just a pair of old sneakers
Stringing each other along
Sometimes I feel just like a heel
'Cause I know in my soul, that it's wrong

We're just a pair of old sneakers
Kicking each other around
Eight times a week, we play 'hide an' cheat'
'Til we've run that game in the ground

We're just a pair of old sneakers
We know that cheating is wrong
We're just a pair of old sneakers
And we've been in the closet too long

We're just a pair of old sneakers
Worn out an' coming unglued
Both wearing rings, feeling ashamed
Trying to run from the truth

We're just a pair of old sneakers
And nothing can tear us apart
Living the lie and Lord knows we've tried
To stop walking on each other's heart

We're just a pair of old sneakers
We know that cheating is wrong
We're just a pair of old sneakers
And we've been in the closet too long

We're just a pair of old sneakers
And we've been in the closet too long...
