Served Faithfully lyrics
he caresses every bottle
like it's the first one he's had
saying it ain't love but it ain't bad
it's the only reward bestowed upon me
and i have served faithfully
i can see he is scarred
from doing some hard time
but i let alone what is broken
because it isn't mine
he strikes out at me
when i am within reach
and then he reaches for me
when i draw the line
sometimes it seems like love
is just a fancy word for compromise
you gotta read between the years
you gotta write between the lines
you gotta try and understand
the grandness of the man behind
the petty crimes
and let him off easy sometimes
i have only just met
an old old friend
we've been walking around holding hands
i hope some day he can bend
as far as it takes to understand
and risk breaking open again
like it's the first one he's had
saying it ain't love but it ain't bad
it's the only reward bestowed upon me
and i have served faithfully
i can see he is scarred
from doing some hard time
but i let alone what is broken
because it isn't mine
he strikes out at me
when i am within reach
and then he reaches for me
when i draw the line
sometimes it seems like love
is just a fancy word for compromise
you gotta read between the years
you gotta write between the lines
you gotta try and understand
the grandness of the man behind
the petty crimes
and let him off easy sometimes
i have only just met
an old old friend
we've been walking around holding hands
i hope some day he can bend
as far as it takes to understand
and risk breaking open again
