Lyrics Let Him Lie - Chumped

Let Him Lie

I put your record on
I sing the song you wrote
And you’re a world away
But I feel closer to home
I know I left behind
Things I’ve loved before
But I give you my heart
Dearest Eleanor
Eleanor, remember when you used to drive me home?
After I played you the first song I wrote
You said you thought it had potential
Eleanor, remember when we used to sit alone?
We wouldn’t speak over the stereo
Because we knew we didn’t have to
Eleanor, I know it’s been a long time
Since we were young and full of longing
But I never let you go
I put your record on
I sing the song you wrote
And you’re a world away
But I feel closer to home
I know I left behind
Things I’ve loved before
But I give you my heart
Dearest Eleanor
Eleanor, remember when we used to hate the kids
Who didn’t understand our politics?
We didn’t care, we were self-righteous
Eleanor, we were all so full of suffering
We had a catalog of songs to sing
That would help us to forget
Eleanor, I know it’s been a long time
Since we were young and full of longing
But I never let you go
I put your record on
I sing the song you wrote
And you’re a world away
But I feel closer to home
I know I left behind
Things I’ve loved before
But I give you my heart
Dearest Eleanor
