Came and Went - Gilbert O'Sullivan

When you needed money

You came to me

It was no problem

That was plain to see

Yet when I needed some company

You promised you’d pay me a call

But you came and went so quickly

I didn’t know

You had been here at all

When there was a war on

You came crawling to me

There seemed no better place

That you’d rather be

Yet when it was over you told me

You’d come back and pay me a call

But you came and went so quickly

I didn’t know

You had been here at all

What does it mean

What does it prove

If I get my

Own back on you

Revenge is sweet

But so are peas

And not the ones

Alphabetically

My hands are cold

Legs are like ice

I’m on the beach

Weather is nice

The wind comes up

It starts to snow

My hands get warm

My feet they glow

Oh I can remember

Things you used to say

But what sticks in my mind most

Is the way

You hurt me so much

When you left me

Although you promised you’d pay me a call

But you came and went so quickly

I didn’t know

You had been here at all
