BRANDS OF LOVE
Lyrics by Geoff Matthews

VERSE
I dreamt there was commitment,
I know I got that wrong.
I thought the river wide enough,
But I was duped, all along.

VERSE
The time it was just shifting.
Looking through the glass.
Now I know about the brands.
Cos nothing good will ever last.

PRE-CHORUS
There are brands of love.
And there are strands of love.
When time runs through the sands of love.

CHORUS
I always thought a ring of gold,
Was more than just a footing hold.
But what I had was just a band,
Right here on my hand.

VERSE
When you whispered that I was the one.
I had no need to doubt.
But the lies were always loud enough.
For the truth to just creep out.

VERSE
My heart will keep on beating.
Don’t expect no UXB.
I pulled it from the wreckage.
Like some ticking refugee.

PRE-CHORUS
There are brands of love.
And there are strands of love.
When time runs through the sands of love.

CHORUS
I always thought a ring of gold,
Was more than just a footing hold.
But what I had was just a band,
Right here on my hand.

MIDDLE
All I ever wanted,
Was it just a fantasy?
Drifting in the open,
On an endless sea.
Innocence was wasted,
Love was turned to dust.
Look what you have done to us!
Just look what you have done!

PRE-CHORUS
There are brands of love.
And there are strands of love.
When time runs through the sands of love.

CHORUS
I always thought a ring of gold,
Was more than just a footing hold.
But what I had was just a band,
Right here on my hand.

VERSE
I dreamt there was commitment,
I know I got that wrong.
I thought the river wide enough,
But I was duped, all along.
