Riding To Vanity Fair

I bit my tongue

I never talked too much

I tried to be so strong

I did my best

I used the gentle touch

I've done it for so long

You put me down

But I can laugh it off

And act like nothing's wrong

But why pretend

I think I've heard enough

Of your familiar song

I tell you what I'm going to do

I'll try to take my mind off you

And now that you don't need my help

I'll use the time to think about myself

You're not aware

Of what you put me through

But now the feeling's gone

But I don't mind

Do what you have to do

You don't fool anyone

I'll tell you what I'm going to do

I'll take a different point of view

And now that you don't need my help

I'll use the time to think about myself

The definition of friendship

Apparently ought to be

Showing support for the one that you love

And I was open to friendship

But you didn't seem to have any to spare

While you were riding to Vanity Fair

There was a time

When every day was young

The sun would always shine

We sang along

When all the songs were sung

Believing every line

That's the trouble with friendship

For someone to feel it

It has to be real or it wouldn't be right

And I keep hoping for friendship

But I wouldn't dare to presume it was there

While you were riding to Vanity Fair
