Never Lost A Chicken To A Fox Lyrics - Beautiful South

There he stood, gun in hand 

At the door, the day she chose to leave 

Half of him stood comforting 

The other half that couldn't quite believe 

Believe that she had left him 

Believe that she had found another love 

Believe that she decided 

When push came to shove, she'd really shove 

Friendship after friendship 

Can't begin to count the ones I've lost 

Voyage after voyage 

Couldn't see the water for the docks 

Lost my way up mountain pass 

Couldn't see the signposts for the frost 

Lost every game I've ever played 

But I've never lost a chicken to a fox

And that stick thrown into lake 

You watch as move you make 

Turns into mistake 

Your love away 

Like that snail on the leaf 

You watch as right beneath 

That cold hearted thief 

Your love away 

There he stood still hours on 

The only movement, the only trace 

The position of the gun 

And a single tear running down his face 

Inside he was screaming 

Outside you could barely hear him cry 

Inside orchestration 

Regulated outside to a sigh

Friendship after friendship 

Can't begin to count the ones I've lost 

Voyage after voyage 

Couldn't see the water for the docks 

Found my way home late at night 

Couldn't see my bed for stranger's socks 

Lost every game I've ever played 

But I've never lost a chicken to a fox 

Your love away, your love away 

Turns into mistake your love away 

Your love away, your love away 

That cold hearted thief, your love away
