lyrics
Please Louise
We’d go out all night long
You were the only one who made me feel like I belong
You and I like sisters we were
As a basket weave only stronger than timber
In the dead of the night it all comes back
The memory of when you stopped being my friend, oh
Please Louise, why’d you drive on by?
You left me on the corner with some random guy
It was jealousy all those years ago
It was the reason why you let our friendship go
Oh please, please, please Louise
I never knew I had it in me
Oh, I was so cruel
Would you forgive a jealous fool?
Please Louise
Oh, I was so ashamed
I stole your man like it was some kind of game
Word is out and the truth is in
I need you so much more than I need him
In the dead of the night it all comes back
The memory of when you stopped being my friend, oh
Please Louise, why’d you drive on by?
You left me on the corner with some random guy
It was jealousy all those years ago
It was the reason why you let our friendship go
Oh please, please, please Louise
I never knew I had it in me
Oh, I was so cruel
Would you forgive a jealous fool?
Please Louise
I can hear my footsteps walking down the street that night
It’s a memory that will never fade just like
My reflection in the window
Of a sad cafe
All the people at the tables watch me walk by
They can see the diamond fall from my eye
When it lands it sounds like glass
But it’s worth much more
I was wrong you were right
And I don’t want to fight
Will you ever see my side of the story?
Why’d you drive on by
You left me on the corner with some random guy
It was jealousy all those years ago
It was the reason why you let our friendship go
Oh please, please, please Louise
I never knew I had it in me
Oh, I was so cruel
Would you forgive a jealous fool?
Please Louise, please
