Lyrics Five Times August

Five Times August

Luckiest Of Suckers

So what you’ve been doing to me

has got to be the greatest unknown

And what you’ve been trying to keep

I bet you didn’t mean to let go

Now it’s obvious that my loneliness

is irrelevant but I can’t let it show

I’m writing you letters, making things better

but you’ll never be the same to me

Baby, you've changed me for good

It’s understood you don’t want me hanging

Maybe I’m hanging on love

And love alone has got me chasing

The shorter skirts, the bigger flirts,

The ones that won’t hurt me like you

But I do, feel like the luckiest of suckers to lose

So what you’ve been saying to me so playfully

is so painfully erasing away

Everyday is the same, it’s a game, it’s a shame

but don’t blame me, cause you came to me

Baby, you've changed me for good

It’s understood you don’t want me hanging

Maybe I’m hanging on love

And love alone has got me chasing

The shorter skirts, the bigger flirts,

The ones that won’t hurt me like you

But I do, feel like the luckiest of suckers to lose

Don’t blame it on the same old songs

I see so clear my dear…

There’s only one thing you’re missing

But don’t expect to get it from me

Everyday is the same, it’s a game, it’s a shame

but don’t blame me, cause you came to me

Baby, you've changed me for good

It’s understood you don’t want me hanging

Maybe I’m hanging on love

And love alone has got me chasing

The shorter skirts, the bigger flirts,

The ones that won’t hurt me like you

But I do, feel like the luckiest of suckers to lose
