lyrics

Don't you think it's about time
Honey you opened up your eyes
Time is money
I don't mean to brag
My life's a drag without you

Oh no the world is spinning faster
And i thought I heard you say
Your father was a bastard
I don't mean to brag
My life's a drag without you.
Oh no It's getting harder.

Don't you break my heart
Don't you mess around
Don't you do it to me babe

Don't you think it's about time
You opened up your eyes
You're thinking too much
You know that it's just a disguise
To get yourself through the shit like anybody else.

Oh no I never thought it was wrong
To open up your heart and sing a song
I know you're trying.
I know you're trying but you can't get by.
Oh no it's getting harder.

Oh but I will die trying
Come on honey time is money
You know honey time is money.
Don't you break my heart.

The Oh Hellos have come to hold a very special place in my heart, not just in this album, but in others as well. Hello My Old Heart was one of the first songs I ever heard by them, and it's been a treasured journey listening to them ever since. ladyoforion
