CHOCOLATES AND FLOWERS

We were so good together
It couldn’t have got any better……….
Oh, happy days
No one could have seen it coming
I was walking and you were running……….
The other way

You sent me an email and a text
I guess you were edging your bets……….
Media meltdown
You took a gamble and it paid off
You meant to win whatever the cost……….
No messing around

(chorus)
You must work hard and put in the hours
Because life’s not all chocolates and flowers
Do you get my drift there aint no quick fix?
Left all alone sends shivers down my bones
Life can sometimes be sweet and sour
It’s not always chocolates and flowers

(bridge)
When we were good, we were great
Joined at the hip the best of mates
How could I have been so blind?
I just failed to notice the signs
In for a penny in for a pound
Either way I was on dodgy ground

We knew there would be tears and laughter
As we went in search of our happy ever after……….
Ohhh misery
I thought we were worth another chance
But you walked away not a second glance……….
Woe is me

(chorus)
You must work hard and put in the hours
Because life’s not all chocolates and flowers
Do you get my drift there aint no quick fix
Left all alone sends shivers down my bones
Life can sometimes be sweet and sour
It’s not always chocolates and flowers

(repeat chorus)
You must work hard and put in the hours
Because life’s not all chocolates and flowers
Do you get my drift there aint no quick fix?
Left all alone sends shivers down my bones
Life can sometimes be sweet and sour
It’s not always chocolates and flowers

Life’s Restaurant

Everyone needs a place to escape
You, me and even your mates
A place where you can let yourself go
A place for you and who else who knows

(chorus)
Any day everyday is never the same
Any day everyday no need to explain
Any day everyday just do what you want
Any day everyday at life’s restaurant

If sometimes you can’t see the wood for the trees
Then this is for you come and set yourself free
For this is a place where time stands still
With nowhere to be and time to kill

Any day everyday is never the same
Any day everyday no need to explain
Any day everyday just do what you want
Any day everyday at life’s restaurant

(Bridge)
Social Medias a thing of the past
There’s no trains, planes or fast cars
A place to go a place to reveal
A place to go for wounds to heal
A place of wonder a place of grace
A second chance for the human race

There is light at the end of the tunnel
And there’s nothing and no one to burst your bubble
Buried are the secrets of the past
No more living behind a mask

Any day everyday is never the same
Any day everyday no need to explain
Any day everyday just do what you want
Any day everyday at life’s restaurant

Where day is night and night is day
Where you decide come what may

Any day everyday is never the same
Any day everyday no need to explain
Any day everyday just do what you want
Any day everyday at life’s restaurant
