Each And Every One

Everything But the Girl · Works [2007]

If you ever feel the time to drop me a loving line

maybe you should just think twice

I don't wait around on your advice

You tell me I can go this far, but no more

Try to show me heaven and then slam the door

You offer shelter at a price much too dear

And your kind of love's the kind that soon disappears

So don't brag how you have changed

And everything's been rearranged

I thought all that was over and done

But I still get the same from Each and Everyone

Being kind is just a way to keep me under your thumb

and I can cry because that's something we've always done

you tell me I'm free of the past now and all those lies

then offer me the same thing in a different guise
