Hefner - Don't Flake Out On Me lyrics

rate me

Don't flake out on me<br />

Oh, you promised you'd write before Easter<br />

And now you damn well know that it's autumn<br />

And I missed you through those summer months<br />

<br />

Oh, you promised yourself you'd stop drinking<br />

And I know it's none of my business<br />

But you were mighty and graceful when sober<br />

But all that gin, all that wine<br />

<br />

We will always talk this way, tired and slightly jaded<br />

We will waste our tears and we'll be waiting years<br />

For the friends who always promised that they'd phone us<br />

<br />

We will always feel this way, faintly optimistic<br />

But we will speak the truth and we will never lose<br />

Oh, the feeling that our hearts could be unbroken<br />

<br />

Don't wimp out on me<br />

Oh, I know you've got the strength of 12 oxen<br />

I've seen you get through these things before<br />

Just like you've seen me get through these things before<br />

<br />

We will always talk this way, tired and slightly jaded<br />

We will waste our tears and we'll be waiting years<br />

For the friends who always promised that they'd phone us<br />

<br />

We will always feel this way, faintly optimistic<br />

But we will speak the truth and we will never lose<br />

Oh, the feeling that our hearts could be unbroken<br />

<br />

Oh, we will always feel dismayed, it will only ever be okay<br />

What's the point in getting laid? We're waiting for the better days<br />

We will always feel dismayed but only ever be okay<br />

What's the point in getting laid? We're waiting for the better days
