(Ian Hunter)



I was your baby-you were my girl

When I asked you to marry me- the tears fell



Sons N` lovers, sons n` lovers, waving

My childhood goodbye-it seems so sad

Well how long have you been my best friend

This won`t be the end of

Sons n` lovers-sons n` lovers--she won`t wanna talk anymore about it



You were my lady- I was your number one

When I said I was leaving- tears run



Sons n` lovers-sons n` lovers, breakin`

Tryin` not to hurt each others hearts

Well how long can we exist- I know

We can`t go on like this

Sons n` lovers-son`s and lovers--I don`t wanna lie anymore



Was that you I saw--walkin` out along the shore

Was that you I saw-talkin` to him

Was that you i saw-puttin` his hands in yours

Thats alright ma- you can still love him

Thats alright ma- you can still love

And through the years-you know- we will remember

Time will never take old times away

How long for you to discover that- there still some strings attached to

Sons n` lovers-sons and lovers

But I don`t wanna play anymore

Sons n` lovers
