Lyrics

Dear Elaine

V1
My Dear Elaine
Never dreamt I’d say these words to you today (loop)
Thought I finally found my way (pause)
I’m Ground down too many games we play (loop)
Heavy steps I take as hope has gone away

Chorus 1
Goodbye Elaine
I cannot stay
I have to turn and walk away
Doubt crept into our bed one day
Seems your friends they got their way
Sneaking round telling tales to betray

But we’re the ones who have to pay

V2
My Dear Elaine
I cannot bear to hear your cries
Knowing that they’re based on lies
Your friends, they don’t they dig me, that’s okay
But why did you believe all they had to say

Chorus 2
Goodbye Elaine
I cannot stay
I have to turn and walk away
Doubt crept into our bed one day
Seems your friends they got their way

Bridge
My Dear Elaine
We can end all the games we play
I love you baby, I can’t live with this pain
A part of me, is lost, just slipped away
Perhaps there’ll be a kar-mic fine to pay

Chorus 3
Goodbye Elaine
I cannot stay
I have to turn and walk away
Doubt slipped into our bed one day
Seems your friends got their way
Sneaking round telling tales to betray

But we’re the ones who have to pay
