Ian Hunter and Mick Ronson - Sons 'n' Lovers lyrics

Hunter I was your baby, you were my girl When I asked you to marry me, the tears fell, the tears fell, the tears fell Sons 'n' lovers, sons 'n' lovers, waving My childhood goodbye, it seems so sad Well how long have you been my best friend ? This won't be the end of Sons 'n' lovers, sons 'n' lovers She don't wanna talk any more 'bout it You were my lady, I was your number one When I said I was leavin', the tears run, the tears run, the tears run Sons 'n' lovers, sons 'n' lovers, breakin' Tryin' not to hurt each others hearts How long can we exist? I know we can't go on like this Sons 'n' lovers, sons 'n' lovers I don't wanna lie any more Was that you I saw walkin' out along the shore ? Was that you I saw talkin' to him ? Was that you I saw puttin' his hands in yours ? Well that's alright ma, you can still love him That's alright ma, you can still love him And through the years, you know, we will remember Time will never take old times away How long for you to discover that ? There's still some strings attached to Sons 'n' lovers, sons 'n' lovers I don't wanna play any more Sons 'n' lovers, sons 'n' lovers Sons 'n' lovers, sons 'n' lovers Sons 'n' lovers, sons 'n' lovers Sons 'n' lovers, sons 'n' lovers …
