Lovers & Friends
Billowing smoke, from my chimney of love
You left me on top of the hill
Both carved our names in the tree that one day
A heartbreak I cannot forgive
Gave him a piece of the pie, that's your heart
He's got some big boots to fill
For better or worse, could I sweep you away
I say I could and I will
I've been your long gone love
Started out lovers and turned into friends
I've been your long gone lover
But how could you do that to him
Dancing my fiddle, at the bonfire one night
Your smile sparkle bright through the dark
I asked for your hand could you spare me one dance
Forever together, apart
Gave him a piece of the pie, that's your heart
He's got some big boots to fill...
For better or worse, could I sweep you away
I say I could and I will
I've been your long gone love
Started out lovers and turned into friends
I've been your long gone lover
But how could you do that to him
It's easy to fall in love
We fall out the same old way
You ran to him when you left me
And I think it's better that way
I think it's better that way
Gave him a piece of the pie, that's your heart
These boots he could never fill
For better or worse, I could sweep you away
But I don't think that I ever will
I've been your long gone love
Started out lovers and turned into friends
I've been your long gone lover
But how could you do that to him
I've been your long gone love
Started out lovers and turned into friends
I've been your long gone lover
But how could you do that to him
You left me on top of the hill
Both carved our names in the tree that one day
A heartbreak I cannot forgive
Gave him a piece of the pie, that's your heart
He's got some big boots to fill
For better or worse, could I sweep you away
I say I could and I will
I've been your long gone love
Started out lovers and turned into friends
I've been your long gone lover
But how could you do that to him
Dancing my fiddle, at the bonfire one night
Your smile sparkle bright through the dark
I asked for your hand could you spare me one dance
Forever together, apart
Gave him a piece of the pie, that's your heart
He's got some big boots to fill...
For better or worse, could I sweep you away
I say I could and I will
I've been your long gone love
Started out lovers and turned into friends
I've been your long gone lover
But how could you do that to him
It's easy to fall in love
We fall out the same old way
You ran to him when you left me
And I think it's better that way
I think it's better that way
Gave him a piece of the pie, that's your heart
These boots he could never fill
For better or worse, I could sweep you away
But I don't think that I ever will
I've been your long gone love
Started out lovers and turned into friends
I've been your long gone lover
But how could you do that to him
I've been your long gone love
Started out lovers and turned into friends
I've been your long gone lover
But how could you do that to him
