Music & lyrics by Angie Louise

lyrics

Mend your ways
It's not too late to mend your ways
I feel the burning - my cold desire
I'll spend my days a leaf upon the fire
If it's too late
It's not too late to mend my ways

I dreamed I faced a worn-out hag
And woke to find it so
The rosy cheek, the supple flesh -
My God, where did it go?
They used me up, those pretty boys
The needle and the yen
And if I had a second chance
I'd do it all again

There was a time
God, how green was my valley
Then you wind up face down in an alley
Think again, love
Remember Ruthie and Sally
Mend your ways
It's not too late
To mend my ways
I feel the burning - my cold desire
I'll spend my days
Like a leaf upon the fire
If it's too late to mend my ways

A sip of wine, a speck of love
That never was my way
I liked it fast, I liked it rough
And I could go for days
He'd take me down and show me round
I thought that I could fly
But now this bird has hit the ground
And nothing gets me high

There was a time
God, how green was my valley
Then you wind up face down in an alley
Think again, love - remember Ruthie and Sally
Mend your ways
It's not too late to mend my ways
I feel the burning - my cold desire
I'll spend my days like a leaf upon the fire
If it's too late to mend my ways

Our love was not a true love
We both had roving eyes
And brought a plague on both our houses
To punish all our lies
And as we waste away, my dear,
the spring is here once more
Oh put the flowers in my hair
Just like you did before

There was a time
God, how green was my valley
Then you wind up face down in an alley
Think again, love - remember Ruthie and Sally
Mend your ways
It's not too late to mend my ways
I feel the burning - my cold desire
I'll spend my days like a leaf upon the fire
If it's too late to mend my ways

No, not too late (Too late!)
To mend my ways
I feel the burning - my cold desire
I'll spend my days like a leaf upon the fire
No, not too late (It's much too late!)
It's not too late (It's far too late!)
Embrace the burning
I'll spend my days in cold desire
Just like a leaf upon the fire
If it's too late -
Too late to mend my ways!
