Title inspired by "Littoral Lullaby" by Eskimeaux

lyrics

C-Am-G-F

You were a groupie and I was an asshole,
took you for granted and got comftorable.
You moved quickly and I changed so slow.
We enjoyed the attention and fed our egos,
but you were totally passive, hiding complaints
so 6 months later I was hiding my pain.
To you, love means just feeling really, really good,
to me, it's about always doing what you should,
commitment, honesty, reliability, and trust.
You don't know what you wanted but I guess it wasn't us.
Every man falls for you cuz you do what he wants,
then you lose interest. You only enjoy the hunt.
You held my hand but i didn't hold your heart.
When I gave you mine, you moved so far
away from me and my calls and my bed.
I waited here believing every word you'd said,
but you weren't serious it was all a game to you.
I'm an old man, I don't play like you do,
but I've learned my lesson: Never fall for the wind.
It's beautiful, carries you away, but it won't be back again.
When I let myself love you, I knew I'd get hurt.
So, looking back on all of this, I guess I got what I deserved.
