Chess New York movie - Nobody's Side lyrics

rate me

<br>

[FLORENCE]<br>

What's going on around me<br>

Is barely making sense<br>

I need some explanations fast<br>

I see my present partner<br>

In the imperfect tense<br>

And I don't see how we can last<br>

I feel I need a change of cast<br>

Maybe I'm on nobody's side.<br>

<br>

And when he gives me reasons<br>

To justify each move<br>

They're getting harder to believe<br>

I know this can't continue<br>

I've still a lot to prove<br>

There must be more I could achieve<br>

But I don't have the nerve to leave.<br>

<br>

Everybody's playing the game<br>

But nobody's rules are the same<br>

Nobody's on nobody's side<br>

Better learn to go it alone<br>

Recognize you're out on your own<br>

Nobody's on nobody's side.<br>

<br>

The one I should not think of<br>

Keeps rolling through my mind<br>

And I don't want to let that go<br>

No lovers ever faithful<br>

No contract truly signed<br>

There's nothing certain left to know<br>

And how the cracks begin to show!<br>

<br>

Never make a promise or plan<br>

Take a little love where you can<br>

Nobody's on nobody's side<br>

Never stay too long in your bed<br>

Never lose your heart, use your head<br>

Nobody's on nobody's side.<br>

<br>

Never take a stranger's advice<br>

Never let a friend fool you twice<br>

Nobody's on nobody's side<br>

Never be the first to believe<br>

Never be the last to deceive<br>

Nobody's on nobody's side<br>

And never leave a moment too soon<br>

Never waste a hot afternoon<br>

Nobody's on nobody's side<br>

Never stay a minute too long<br>

Don't forget the best will go wrong<br>

Nobody's on nobody's side.<br>

<br>

Better learn to go it alone<br>

Recognize you're out on your own<br>

Nobody's on nobody's side.<br>

<br>
