Two Of A Kind – Lisa Nilsson

(text & musik: Neigher/Young)

They were making a home
and they said it would last them forever
And she could firmly believe in a lie
just to keep them together

But when he pulls her close at the end of the day
her eyes are looking the other way
If they only knew that the real love lay
in the difference between what they mean and what they say

Ref: They were two of a kind
such a sad song to sing
all those big city lights
and the places in between
Could not hide what was lost
or replace were they’ve been
baby, two of a kind
such a sad song to sing

But once in a while
she would dream of a better life
and it would take every peace of her heart
just to keep it alive

And they worked so hard every single day
She got lonely and he got paid
God knows were the real truth lay
But he ain’t giving any answers today

Ref: They were two of a kind…

But once in a while
he would hold her
and she wouldn’t feel so cold
And once in a while
when he told her
she could really believe

Ref: They were two of a kind…
