[Lyric] Lydia (John Wesley Harding)

You think I smell like an ashtray
Smoke like a chimney
Yeah, maybe I do
But Lydia, it's all because of you

You think I drink like a fish
Never clean up my dish
And I wish that wasn’t all true
But Lydia, it's all because of you

You think that I’m always ill
That I’m writing my will
Thanks for the review
Lydia, it's all because of you

When we first met
I was happy and healthy
Strapping and wealthy and wise
One lick of you
And I had found my parasite
You think that I never sleep
But it’s you who’s been keeping me
Up the whole night through
Lydia, all because of you

You think my timing is bad
That I like to be sad
And my sense of myself is askew
But Lydia, it’s all bеcause of you

You think I smoke lots of pot
But I guess you forgot
Who you’rе dealing it to
Lydia, it’s all because of you

When we first met
I was set in my ways
Till you changed all the rules of the game
And tomorrow, for sure
I hope that it's more of the same

You think all I do is write songs
And that isn’t wrong
But I’m not afraid of the truth
Lydia, it’s all because of you
I was once in my prime
Now I cry all the time
You were my Waterloo
Lydia, it’s all because of you

But you still like my eyes
It’s kinda surprising
They're tired and they’re bloodshot too
Oh Lydia… Lydia…

When we first met
I was high as a kite
On my flight to the top of the charts
The next time I see you
I’m worried I might fall apart

Well we made it through spring
My beautiful thing
I know you’re just passing through
Lydia, I did it all for you
Lydia, all because of you
