Sarah's Game - The Loved Ones

All the working boys are craning their necks

She knows they love it when she’s wearing a dress

She works hard to erase the lines on her face

And the pills to help her cope with the stress

All the office guys are scratching their heads

She won’t take any of them home to bed

After she’s had her fill she hands them the bill

And laughs on the phone with her friends

But she gets tired

All the games she likes to play wear her down

He got fed up with all the cards up her sleeve

All the half truths he tried to believe

And that night at The Top when she kissed the cop

It just seemed like it was time to leave

She thought it may have been time for a break

But lately feeling like it was a mistake

She got the note that he wrote and started to gloat

Was left with a dull stinging ache

She gets tired

All the games she likes to play wear her down

She can’t forget and regrets the one she lives without

On the edge of town

But if she let go, let go, would it all come crashing down?

If she let go, let go and it all came crashing down

He’d stick around

All the working boys are craning their necks

She knows they love it when she’s wearing a dress

She works hard to erase the lines on her face

And the pills to help her cope with the stress

She thought it may have been time for a break

But lately feeling like it was a mistake

She got the note that he wrote and started to gloat

And was left with a dull stinging ache

She gets tired

All the games she likes to play wear her down

She can’t forget and regrets the one she lives without

On the edge of town

But if she let go, let go, would it all come crashing down?

Let go, let go, would it all come crashing down?

Let go, let go, would it all come crashing down?

Let go, let go, and it all came crashing down

He’d stick around
