The Craving

Written by Paul Dougherty

We grew up together
We were pals in all kinds of weather
We even made it through a trio of Heathers
With you by my side

You were my first and only love
You’re the one I’m always thinking of
Through the dark times and the times of happiness
You were there, and you’re here now, somehow

Ch
Let it rain, let come what may
We will walk side by side, through the night and the day
I couldn’t stop you then, I can’t stop you now
I won’t say goodbye, even though I’ve tried and tried
And the craving comes over me
And the craving sweeps over me

You’ve been a constant friend
We’ve been together since way back when
And you'll be with me until the end
If I choose, that’s what I love about you

We used to be the only ones
Who understood what was going on
But now we feel that the world has gone wrong
But hey, who doesn’t these days

Ch
I won’t say goodbye, even though I’ve tried and tried
