lyrics

Don't expect forgiveness.
No, expect them to forget you,
You thought you recognised friendship in their eyes,
But it's all misrepresentation. That's the truth.

Don't disappear, but don't stay too long.
There's a fine line among friends,
Between connection and tolerance.
They'll stay if needed, by likely not in the end.

But be free to your new life,
Be kind in your new relationships,
Don't treat them like you used to treat me,
Or you'll find the balance sort of tips,

And comes right around full circle.

You'll lose the people you thought you held dear,
And it's not their fault that nobody likes you,
But don't look back and hope for the past,
Move on, change your mindset, and bid the old adieu.

But be free to your new life,
Be kind in your new relationships,
Don't treat them like you used to treat me,
Or you'll find the balance sort of tips,

And comes right around full circle.

Don't expect forgiveness.
No, expect them to forget you,
You thought you recognised friendship in their eyes,
But it's all misrepresentation. That's the truth.

Laisse tomber les filles, laisse tomber les filles.
Un jour, c'est toi qu'on laissera.
Laisse tomber les filles, laisse tomber les filles.
Un jour, c'est toi qui pleureras.
Oui, j'ai pleuré mais ce jour-là
Non, je ne pleurerai pas, non, je ne pleurerai pas.
Je dirai "c'est bien fait pour toi".
Je dirai "ça t'apprendra", je dirai "ça t'apprendra".

about

Jonathan Atkins Mississauga, Ontario

"A singer-songwriter with a devastating ear for harmonies and a delicate touch with lyrics that slide perfectly into a horrid winter. There's a definite Celtic touch, but far sweeter than something like Mumford & Sons." - Andrew Fifield (Metro News)
