Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Double Cross (Mary Coughlan)
Hi
I've listed to the lyrics and thought they sounded a bit different:

1. I wake up in the morning, get out of bed and drag my makeup on.
I walk out on the street. My ev'ry exit's covered.
Hitch up my pants and I fake it just like a man.

CHORUS: Ev'ry hold that I had on time, ev'ry dream that I thought was mine,
Well, it's all quite forgotten now, lost without the double cross of you(?)

2. Like my coffee I've grown cold. I stay behind and fade into the wall.
I'm lost amongst the jostling crowds at lunchtime.
I'm hoping you'll come but I know that you won't even call.

3. My social smile comes out again. My glass in hand, I've a word for one and all.
Ah, but deep inside, I'm crying just like a baby.
I'm all grown up but I never learned how to crawl.
