Betrayed(Philip Oakey / Philip Adrian Wright)

When all the money's gone
When all the boys move on
No star to wish upon
When every race is run



In the quiet of the morning
Lying in the morning sun
Ruins of another country
Day has just begun



Blown by the desert breeze
No memory of trees
No mercy from the sky
No avenue to try



In the quiet of the morning
Lying in the morning sun
Ruins of another country
Day has just begun



When all the money's gone
When all the boys move on
No star to wish upon
When every race is run



In the quiet of the morning
Lying in the morning sun
Ruins of another country
Day has just begun

This is again one of the oldies, but like most other League songs
it has a life of it's own AND quite a lot of truth in it.

When all the money's gone
When all the boys move on
No star to wish upon
When every race is run

Yes Yes Yes, we all know it, but still.....It's true, the regret of past choices haunts people for the rest of their lives, but why do they do it then ???? Insecurity ?? Stupidity ??

Blown by the desert breeze
No memory of trees
No mercy from the sky
No avenue to try

The story continues, the exit is nowhere to be found, then why are some people so stupid when it's so obvious to everybody else ???
The fun of breaking a trust ??? Of lying and sleeping around with others ???? Truly the choice of a fool or a small child, who doesn't
know better !!


In the quiet of the morning
Lying in the morning sun
Ruins of another country
Day has just begun

A new day is dawning, but the world is still the same, the country
never changes, it's the same old song yet again, just another day.
And the conclusion ? WHAT is the price of a broken trust ???
