frank turner - old flames lyrics

[verse 1 – frank turner]
i went down to london town to stay for the weekend
i’d been too long out on the road, i needed to catch up with my friends
but i didn’t expect to see your there, and i didn’t expect to care
and i said, “oh, honey, if i had known
how the weekend would go
and just how low i could go, i would have stayed away”

[verse 2 – billy the kid]
i went back to town to pack my things and say goodbye
but i got talked in to going for a drink, and one drink became a night
if i’d known that you were around, i wouldn’t have gone down
and i said “oh honey, if i could have seen
where this weekend would lead
and seen the wreckage i’d leave, i would have stayed away”

[bridge – frank turner]
and i always knew it was a bad idea
and i always knew that i should just steer clear
i slipped up on a couple of months and a couple of beers
i’d like to fall in love again
but we’re no good at being friends
it’s just sex with the ex and the morning regrets
but do you remember back when we were young and unformed
it was all so much easier to give of yourself, to fall in love
yeah but as we get older and set in our ways, we harden our hearts
but on nights like these it can seem so much simpler
to simply forget why we ever grew apart

[verse 3 – billy the kid]
i don’t really know what you were thinking
do you even think at all?
car crash in slow motion the way that we falled into bed
i don’t really know what i was drinking
i don’t usually drink at all
i woke up with the hotel bill and an ache in my head

[both – outro]
i’d love to fall in love again
we’re no good at being friends
it’s just sex with the ex and the morning regrets
and oh! honey, it won’t be the same
oh! honey, we’ll never change
we’re drawn back into the flame
when we both, both should have stayed, stayed away
