Same Old Story

(album: Maxi Priest - 1988)

I don't need nobody to
Tell me what I'm going through
Seen it time and time before
The story of my life

Always
Beating my head against the wall
Will she ever come or not at all
So many pictures in my mind
Making it hard to choose my kind

Well ain't it mysterious the two of us
We just can't see
Ain't it ridiculous the both of us
We just can't be oh no
Hey, oh no, oh oh oh

Same old story's been told before
Same old conclusions they keep knocking at my door
Same old story's been told before
Same old conclusions they keep knocking at my door

I know you're out there somewhere
Searching to find someone who cares
So many pictures in your mind
Making it hard to choose your kind

Well ain't it mysterious the two of us
We just can't see
Ain't it ridiculous the both of us
We just can't be oh no
Hey, oh no, oh oh oh

Oh so lonely, lonely
I'm so lonely, lonely

Same old story's been told before
Same old conclusion they keep knocking at my door
Same old story's been told before
Same old conclusion they keep knocking at my door
Same old story yeah
Same old story yeah
You're just confusing my mind
Same old story
You're just confusing my mind
Same old story
