High And Dry

(album: Pieces Of Magic - 1977)

I started out a friend
Then you brought about the end (Do or die)
'Cause you had to make me love you
Do or die

You caught me with your line
And I tried to make you mine (High and dry)
Now I'm lonely, lost and stranded
High and dry

We were happy, why do you have to tell a lie?
Said you loved me, then you left me high and dry
You take me, break me
Then you make me cry
Why do you have to leave me high and dry?

We were happy, why do you have to tell a lie?
Said you loved me, then you left me high and dry
You take me, break me
Then you make me cry
Why do you have to leave me high and dry?

I thought love was your aim
But you treat me like a game (By and by)
And I ended up a loser by and by
Why did you talk me 'round
'Til love's sweet caress I found (High and dry)
Only to end up stranded high and dry

We were happy, why do you have to tell a lie?
Said you loved me, then you left me high and dry
You take me, break me
Then you make me cry
Why do you have to leave me high and dry?

We were happy, why do you have to tell a lie?
Said you loved me, then you left me high and dry
You take me, break me
Then you make me cry
Why do you have to leave me high and dry?

We were happy, why do you have to tell a lie?
Said you loved me, then you left me high and dry
You take me, break me
Then you make me cry
Why do you have to leave me high and dry?
