Brenda

 

APPEARS ON


Met on a train going somewhere fast
He could see what she had right on
Together they built up an impasse so fast
That no one nothing could stop it
He looked like a man of the people
She looked high as hell at the ball
Of course they made everybody so jealous
No one could touch them at all
It was true love

What while the rabbles was resting they conquered the world and beyond
With each new insatiable ambition they tested
It strengthened their bond
He wasn't nearly as driven
She wasn't nearly fun
But together they was quite a combination
When it come down to getting it done
It was true love
True love

They massed unspeakable fortunes
And she still wasn't satisfied
So he set out to find what she wanted in a man
What a hell of a ride
Bought jet planes and castles
Took every pleasure that they could
Good love comes with its troubles where things
Things wouldn’t always be good
It was true love
There was a few times when she cheated
There was even a few times when they split
She helped him when he got arrested
____________
Cause what mattered was keeping that feeling
What mattered was staying on top
Some say what’s keeping them together so long
Is the feeling _____________
True love
True love

These days he's calling her Brenda
That wasn't always her name
They've both been through so many changes
As they weathered the pressures that came
Not long ago she almost lost it
A lesser man might have been dead
Just when she thought he might be giving up
He was back up in business instead
It's his true love

Tonight I'm sure he's in some tavern
He's smoking he's drinking it in
And I'm sure she's holed up in that office
Crunching the numbers again
He's living it up while she's working
I guess that's just about right
Mick Jagger was born on a Monday morning
Keith Richards was born on a Saturday night

It was true
