Poppies and Peonies Christian Kjellvander
And I [G]wanted you to need me
and I[C] wanted to need [G]you
But the [C]days they proved different:
took [D]action for [G]truth
It's[G] plain it wasn't in the cards for [C]you and for [G]me
'cause you [C]can't live off laughter and[D] lux[G]ury
[G]When you couldn't be loved
you were [C]left with [G]feared
[D]Passed admiration contempt [C]is [G]reared
[G]Considered all the things i[C] had with[G] you
[D]Considered all the things i[C] had to [G]do
I wanted you to need me
and I wanted to need you
But the days they proved different:
took action for truth
It's plain it wasn't in the cards
for you and for me
'cause you can't live
off laughter and luxury
You spin your web of sorrow and dreams
Your life's a poem, or so it seems
One too many drunken nights,
One too many unfeathering fights
I wanted you to need me
and I wanted to need you
But the days they proved different:
took action for truth
It's plain it wasn't in the cards
for you and for me
'cause you can't live
off laughter and luxury
So move on, move in, move out
There's a light that lurks in the shadows of doubt
Carry on, carry in, carry out
In this action is what you carry about
So I found a girl who needed me
and you know I need her too
And it's plain that it's all in the cards for her and for me
'cause you cant live off love, laughter and luxury
Yes, you can live like poppies and peonies
