The Chain Gang of 1974 - Champagne Saturday

It got easy, wasting breath on passing days
Please release me
Because I can't be caught in vain

Never enough to give it up
Always too much to miss the touch
I need a place to take this in
Was it too far, was it a sin?

I got hazy on a champagne Saturday
Fucked and lazy
I think I'm too old to run away
I get so high to numb it up
You bend and bend to make it rough
The sky is grey, now take that in
Don't hesitate, I need a friend

Slow nights fading
Head in hands
I hope I'm not jaded so much
That I cannot give myself away
And live with a heart that has no name
Slow nights making it so easy to blame

Falling from above
Like a retro kind of love
Breaking hearts for you
Now I know for sure
That my pain is not for her
Breaking hearts for two

It got easy
Slow nights fading
Head in hands
I hope I'm not jaded so much
That I cannot give myself away
And live with a heart that has no name
Slow nights making it so easy to blame
