[00:00:00] Figure Of Speech - Joan Armatrading

[00:00:02] Written by：Joan Armatrading

[00:00:26] He'll teach you to wait by the phone

[00:00:30] And then won't call

[00:00:38] Throw your life in a turmoil

[00:00:41] And when you fall

[00:00:48] Just when you need him most

[00:00:54] He won't see you

[00:00:58] Don't let him

[00:01:04] Don't let him

[00:01:10] Don't let him

[00:01:16] Get you down

[00:01:19] When your dreams get shattered

[00:01:23] Down where nothing matters

[00:01:27] But if he won't have you

[00:01:30] You can bet your life

[00:01:32] Bet your life

[00:01:35] It's not the end

[00:01:39] And if he can't see

[00:01:41] What a friend you are

[00:01:43] That's his loss

[00:01:44] That's his loss

[00:01:45] That's his loss

[00:01:46] It's not the end

[00:01:51] Don't let him

[00:01:56] Don't let him

[00:02:02] Don't let him

[00:02:08] Get you down

[00:02:11] Watch his lips while he speaks

[00:02:14] And read his eyes

[00:02:22] It's a figure of speech

[00:02:24] So don't be surprised

[00:02:33] When he talks of love

[00:02:38] But his deeds can break you

[00:02:42] Don't let him

[00:02:48] Don't let him

[00:02:54] Don't let him

[00:03:00] Get you down

[00:03:02] Don't let him

[00:03:07] Don't let him

[00:03:13] Don't let him

[00:03:19] Get you down
