Christian Kjellvander - Poppies And Peonies lyrics

I wanted you to need me and I wanted to need you But the days they proved different: took action for truth It's plain it wasn't in the cards for you and for me 'cause you can't live off laughter and luxury When you couldn't be loved you were left with fear Pa**ed admiration contempt is near Considered all the things I had with you Considered all the things I had to do I wanted you to need me and I wanted to need you But the days they proved different: took action for truth It's plain it wasn't in the cards for you and for me 'cause you can't live off laughter and luxury You spun your web of sorrow and dreams Your life's a poem, or so it seems One too many drunken nights, One too many unfeathering fights I wanted you to need me and I wanted to need you But the days they proved different: took action for truth It's plain it wasn't in the cards for you and for me 'cause you can't live off laughter and luxury So move on, move in, move out There's a light that lurks in the shadows of doubt Carry on, carry in, carry out And this action is what you carry about So I found a girl who needed me and you know I need her too The days they are different: took action for truth And it's plain that it's all in the cards for her and for me 'cause you can live off love, laughter and luxury Yes you can live off love, laughter and luxury Yes, you can live like poppies and peonies
