Lyrics The Mayfield Four

The Mayfield Four

Always

Are you growing weary

As you dance all alone

In a room that's resonating

With an old familiar song?

Making you want the other

For awhile there wasn't friction

And alone you were at ease

But now and then there's something

That makes you want to be

Back in the arms but you can't take it

Always, always, seems to find you

What you want you don't need

'Cause she locks you down

So are you better off as one?

This prince with little purpose

Thinks he'll find it in the wings

Of an angel or a princess

But surely not a queen

'Cause that's about the only thing

That he knows for sure

Yeah, he's the king of contradictions

Who changes everyday

One minute he finds peace and love

The next he finds disdain

And it's way too complicated

Things will never change

Always, always seems to find you

What you want you don't need

'Cause she locks you down

So are you better off as one?

Always, always seems to find you

What you want you don't need

'Cause she locks you down

So are you better off?

Always, seems like you always

Seems like you claim to have so much control

But you're such a mess when you're all alone

Do you really wanna do it?

Have you washed out all the stains?

You seem crazy with temptation

And very, very dazed and confused

Who's buying your throne?

The stone inside you call a heart thaws

Just enough to beat

And familiar feelings came

And you surrendered to the needs

Of another, not another

Always, always, seems to find you

What you want you don't need

'Cause she locks you down

So are you better off?

Always, seems like you always

Why do you claim to have so much control

As you're such a mess when you're all alone?

Always, seems like you always

Seems like you look for any kind of reason

To justify a means to jump back in

In, in, in, in, in, in
