Richard & Linda Thompson - Don't Renege On Our Love lyrics

rate me

Remember, when we were hand in hand?<br />

Remember, we sealed it with a golden band?<br />

Now your eyes don't meet mine, you've got a pulse like fever<br />

Do I take you for a lover or just a deceiver?<br />

<br />

Simple is simple and plain is plain<br />

If you leave me now you won't come back again<br />

When the game is up, ah, don't renege on our love<br />

<br />

No, don't renege on our love<br />

Ah, no, don't renege on our love, don't renege on our love<br />

<br />

Well, give me just an ounce of sympathy<br />

Give me my chains of liberty<br />

There's a rope that binds us and I don't want to break it<br />

If love is a healing why should we forsake it<br />

<br />

Well, hunger is hunger and need is need<br />

Am I just another mouth to feed<br />

When the game is up, well don't renege on our love<br />

<br />

No, don't renege on our love<br />

No, don't renege on our love, don't renege on our love<br />

<br />

When my heart breaks it breaks like the weather<br />

If you leave me now it'll thunder forever<br />

Oh, don't give it up, well, well, don't renege on our love<br />

<br />

Ah, no, don't renege on our love<br />

No, don't renege on our love, don't renege on our love<br />

Don't renege on our love
