Salt To The Wounds Lyrics

Salt To The Wounds

All is fair in love and war



The piper calls the tune



You haven't really played the game



Til you've broken all the rules



So take the best of everything



The worst we can refuse



I can't say if we'll win in the end



But we've got nothing to lose







And when we thought that time stood still



Then changes come too soon



And the songs we hum are out of date



But you can't forget the tune



You pay the price for holding on



When you know it's time to choose



I can't say if we'll win in the end



But we've got nothing to lose







There's nothing to lose now



Like fools we rush in too soon



Two steps back for every one we take



We're adding salt to the wounds 



We're adding salt to the wounds 







Last to heed the warning signs



That dance before our eyes



And shadows whisper told you so's



Oh how the fools were wise



I'd only learnt to love the girl



When I heard the news I didn't say we'd win in the end



But we had nothing to lose
