Tough Love - Squeeze

There she sits in an empty room

The look on her face says it all

A bruise appears round a crying eye

As the tear drops sadly fall

He knocked her over he hit her

And told her she’s stupid

HeЎЇs high as a kite once again

She knows that tough love is needed

To save the love of her friend

There he sits in a freezing car

She’s in her bed in the warm

The cold light of the morning sky

Finds him cramped and looking worn

He wanders inside on tiptoes

And brews up some coffee

HeЎЇs shaking and sweating again

She knows that tough love is needed

To save the love of her friend

They talk it over but it’s not easy

Sorting it out

She cannot take it when he tells lies

And sneaks off out of the room

Returning like somebody’s lost balloon

Tea leaves sit in an empty cup

No expression on his face

The TV’s showing commercials

He’s back in her arms again
