Benson And Hedges Lyrics - Singles - The Loved Ones

One more song for the broken hearted 

A dream so true that soon departed 

and was cast aside to yellow and dry up 

All the people you were up above 

That you worked so hard to be better than 

Would you trade it for a minute of connection? 

The kids are grown the teeth are pulled 

The receipts counted now theres lines across your face 

it all meant nothing 

so pull the door down one last time 

and wash your hands free you can leave this cross you bear 

it all meant nothing 

walk away to burn it all down 

But when the scissors got too dull 

and you had to make a choice 

whether to fix what you'd done 

or start it all again 

and when the light turns green 

on your hopes and dreams 

do you take right off or do you wait around? 

it might turn red again 

and now you're hanging for these ropes 

and are you hopeless or well off? 

so light up one more cigarette 

for everything you left behind 

and burn it all down
