Debris

Rod Stewart · Other Songs - Rod Stewart

(ronnie lane)

I left you on the debris

At the sunday morning market

You were sorting through the odds and ends

You was looking for a bargin

I heard your footsteps at the front door

And that old familiar love song

Cause you knew you'd find me waiting there

At the top of the stairs

I wouldn't of went back

Just to see how far it was

And you looked shocked to tell me

But I had to love her myself

Theres more trouble at the depot

With the general workers union

And they said they'll never change a thing

Well they won't fight and their not working

Oh you was my hero

Hell you are my good friend

(I've been there and back)

And I know how far it is

But I left you on the debris

Now we both know you got no money

And I wonder what you would have done

Without me hanging around
