Mike Hammer

wasted the day
come apart in pieces as she 
takes her life so hard
took you on a holiday
complete with promises
of what we lost
 
oh no i slipped again
i didnt mean to let you wander 
took you by the hand to show 
you places that 
wed never been to
dressed us up in autumn blues 
offered up as only you could 
 
every day
is easy money
a holiday
but maybe someday 
well you and ill find our way 
 
burn the night and died in the 
afterglow we hoped to find
did i forget to mention the one 
small thing
a pleasure cruise
for only you and i

later as the ship set sail i found 
the deck in easy pieces
threw out all myself to save you 
hoping that one shred
might get through
oh no i slipped again
i didnt mean to let you wander 
 
every day
is easy money
a holiday
but maybe someday 
well you and ill find 
well you and ill find 
our way
