Throw Me a Line

Throw me a line
(J. Veerman/J. Keizer/J. Tuijp/D. v.d. Horst)

Lost in a whiskybar, in an old forgotten place called Dario
I could see then you were dangling after me, but that was long ago
I had to be the swell, playing ducks and drakes with all your money, babe
You threw me over and then I lost control, but that was long ago

Throw me a line, can't you see my heart is broken
Won't you be mine, I won't blame you anymore
Tears that I cried they could easily fill an ocean
Don't make up your mind, never look behind
I won't take it lying down

You laped in luxury, and you didn't notice me, but I was there
Well at last you took a rise out of me, but that was long ago
You had to be the swell, playing ducks and drakes with all my money, babe
I threw you over and then you lost control, but that was long ago

Throw me a line, can't you see my heart is broken
Won't you be mine, I won't blame you anymore
Tears that I cried they could easily fill an ocean
Don't make up your mind, never look behind
I won't take it lying down
Don't make up your mind, never look behind
I won't take it lying down
