The False Contender

Album: Let's Get Out Of This Country [2023]
Author: Tracyanne Campbell

I once had a love but soon had enough
He was a false contender
He got so thin there must have been deep sorrow gnawing away at him

 

What will I do?
Will it always be you?
I hope and I pray he'll leave me one day

 

We were so sweet under the Copper Beach
You left a mark you sunk your teeth
Into the back of my neck, oh let's not pretend I needed the lesson that you taught me well

 

What will I do?
Will it always be you?
I hope and I pray he'll leave me one day
What will I do?
Must it always be you?
I hope and I pray he'll leave me one day
Leave me one day
Leave me one day
Leave me one day
