Letters 03:36
Letters Stanford Road 2014 Mama brought the devil home Guess I was six or seven Man was he tall in his boots with his hat on Mama was in heaven But devil he was with a chill in his eye and his glass runnin' dry of some cheap southern rye (there was just no pleasin') I could tell you it's better in unwritten letters I ain't gonna send But Mama I've grown up Just like you Oh Mama I've grown up Just like you (There's just no pleasin') You said you couldn't help it You said he needed you But the eyes of a child can see more than you know and those pictures still tear at my mind don't ya know Oh i'll tell you it's better in unwritten letters I ain't gonna send Cos Mama I've grown up Just like you Yeah Mama I've grown up Just like you ---- And all of these years I been runnin' away keeping time by myself cos I didn't deserve... Now I've found me a man and he's tall in his boots He's the devil But what can I do!--- Shall I tell you it's better in unwritten letters I ain't gonna send But Mama I've grown up Just like you Yeah Mama I've grown up Just like you Yeah Mama I've grown up Just like you (and there's no pleasin') Him.

So Wrong 03:07
So Wrong Stanford Road 2014 Everyone is guessing at the answer It's a question no one wants to ask Really can't believe that there's no mystery Didn't think that you and me would last When we first walked out together There were fireworks. Reckon that the devil even threw us a black look But, Oh oh they're so wrong. So we might look a little odd Together as a two You in dirty ripped up jeans And you in satin shoes But put that flower in my hair And sing to me your songs And I won't care what people say Cos you and me ain't wrong Oh oh they're so wrong Oh oh they're so wrong It's been nearly seven years and I still can't quite believe That we have been so great together and that you didn't leave when I said...... Oh oh you're so wrong Oh oh you're so wrong Sometimes when that lightning strikes the odds get evened out And even when the morning comes there really is no doubt Cos when it's wrong it's always wrong but when it's right it right And you took me to the chapel saying baby lets go set this town alight. Oh oh, they're so wrong Oh oh, they're so wrong Oh oh, they're so wrong

FOOLS COMFORT Stanford Road 2014 I didn't ask you here for a coffee And I ain't gonna say that we're okay Just take your things, but leave your keys Cos there's nothing left to say Your love is a fools comfort That you let me believe Nothing but a fools comfort And it's making a fool out of me I thought I knew you better I promised to love you til I died You stole the scene in all of my dreams Let me build my whole life on this lie Your love is a fools comfort That you let me believe Nothing but a fools comfort And it's making a fool out of me You had all of my heart 'Cause I, gave you it all You tore me apart Now I'm tired of playing your fool And your love is a cruel comfort That you let me believe Nothing but a fools comfort And it's making a fool outta me Nothing but a fools comfort And it's ----- made a fool outta me
