Riding To Vanity Fair

I bit my tongue

I never talked too much

I tried to be so strong



I did my best

I used the gentle touch

I've done it for so long



You put me down

But I can laugh it off

And act like nothing's wrong



But why pretend?

I think I've heard enough

Of your familiar song



I'll tell you what I'm gonna do

I'll try to take my mind off you

And now that you don't need my help

I'll use the time to think about myself



You're not aware

Of what you put me through

And now the feeling's gone



But I don't mind

Do what you have to do

You don't fool anyone



I'll tell you what I'm gonna do

I'll take a different point of view

And now that you don't need my help

I'll use the time to think about myself



The definition of friendship

Apparently you're to be

Showing support for the one that you love

And I was open to friendship

But you didn't seem to have any to spare

While you were riding to Vanity Fair



There was a time

When every day was young

The sun would always shine



I was alone

When all the songs were sung

Relieving every line



That's the trouble with friendship

Someone to feel and it has to be real

Or it wouldn't be right

I keep hoping for friendship

But I wouldn't dare to presume it was there

While you were riding to Vanity Fair



While you were riding to Vanity Fair

While you were riding to Vanity Fair

While you were riding to Vanity Fair
