Confidante
Paul McCartney
[Intro] / / [Chorus] You used to be my confidante My underneath-the-staircase friend But I fell out of love with you And brought our romance to an end I played with you throughout the day And told you every secret thought Unlike my other so-called friends You stood beside me as I fought / / [Verse 1] In your reflected glory I Could dream of shining far off lands Where serpents turn to bits of string And play like kittens in my hand [Verse 2] In our imaginary world Where butterflies wear army boots And stomp around the forests Chanting long lost anthems Long lost anthems [Guitar Solo] / / [Chorus] You used to be my confidante My underneath-the-staircase friend But I fell out of love with you And brought our romance to an end I played with you throughout the day And told you every secret thought Unlike my other so-called friends You stood beside me as I fought You stood beside me as I fought / / [Outro] You used to be my confidante
