Smithy leaves from 6 til 7
She irons out the creases of this so-called heaven
While sweeping up the pieces of those dreams in Devon
Whose side you on
Every time we touch the hairs, they jump from my neck
Every time I see you, I'm a nervous wreck
These days I just get colder, keeping things in check
And the time has come
I'm rolling with the seasons, but I'm getting kinda stuck
Running out of reasons while I feel thunderstruck
I feel like a junkie, I'm all tied up
Put it down to bad love
Bad love (bad love)
This ain't some nostalgic fix
Trying to rid this heavy old world of its tricks
When he hears she's staying with friends in the sticks
On a Friday night
To pursue your own happiness, it sure takes courage
Solid foundations from the base to the ridge
Remember those good old days on Crawford Bridge
In the raw moonlight
Stuck in Southern Ireland in the Clonakilty mist
450 miles from the first place we kissed
Hiding in the shadow of society's fist
Put it down to bad love (bad love)
Seems like we've both been caught up in the perfect storm
The rain is cold but dance, we'll soon get warm
Every story ends, every rose has its thorn
Put it down to bad love
Bad love
♪
I don't wanna spend my hollow days
Twisted around the branches of our heart-sunken ways
Throw away the ashes of our soft drunken phase
Where my regret betrays
I'm rolling with the seasons, but I'm getting kinda get stuck
I'm running out of reasons, while I feel thunderstruck
I feel like a junkie, I'm all tied up
Put it down to bad love (bad love)
35 years, and been in love from the start
Smithy ain't a bad man, they've just grown apart
While somebody needs her with every ounce of his heart
Put it down to bad love (bad love)
Put it down to bad love
Put it down to bad love
Put it down to bad love (bad love)
Put it down to bad love, bad love
