I must have walked past this doorway thirty times
Just trying to catch your eye
You made it all worthwhile
When you returned my smile
It all became worthwhile
Don't you feel a little cold stood by the door?
You know, I'd really like to talk some more
Oh, don't be worried about your friend
I think she left some time 'round ten
What was her name again?
You're not like anyone I've ever met
You're...
I wonder what our kid has bought her
I think I'll try unwrap a corner
He didn't spend that much in the end
He doesn't think that highly of his friends
I've wanted one of those for years
That was until I got it here
On second thought, I don't think I like it
But if it's for sale someone will buy it
I can't think just what I wanted it for
I've already borrowed too much money
I told Michel she th...
When I held back the doors and accidentally my hand touched yours - you smiled
But if my voice sounded unsteady it?s because by then I was already beguiled
And I knew as the rain beat down outside
There was nowhere else to hide
You were going to have to speak to me
And as we sheltered there together and talked inanely about the weather - I thought
How it would be obligatory to ask for your num...
When I set foot on the bus you laughed said: "that's the end for us"
Oh could a joke ever go more wrong? if only you'd have come along
Oh but you must stop calling Jane, she is completely without blame
Do you have to ring her up so soon? that's rubbing salt into these wounds
A little bit of what you fancy doesn't do you any good at all
Oh I know that now
I can't add to what I've said, I just c...
This is all because you didn't like my mum
Well I'm afraid I can't get born again
Oh it's not just me who's changed
And can you tell me what it is you think I said
And are you sure that it's not just in your head
And when was this anyway?
And if we're really really going to be honest
We might as well be brief
And by the way I got your little
Along with some dryness in my throat
When I saw that...
I'm just some name in your book
That's why you gave up writing weeks ago
You won't be getting in touch
Oh do you ever?
And I meant every word that I said
Oh did I try to hard oh, I don't know
You made sure it wouldn't happen again
Oh you're clever
Yes I was that naive
Yes I was that naive
You've heard this all before
You've heard this all before
I'm just some name in your book
That's why you g...
No, I sent you that letter
To ask you if the end was worth the means
Was there really no in between?
And I still don't feel better
I just wondered if it could be like before
And I think you just made me sure
But then that's typically you
And I might have been a bit rude
But I wrote it in a bad mood
I'm not being funny with you
But it's hard to be engaging
When the things you love keep changing...
Just before you go today
There's something that I've got to say
Well you asked me what was wrong
And I didn't want to tell you
You believed me when I said I tried
But oh, Carolyn, I lied
And its gone on far too long
And I never tried to help you
But don't wait up for me
Just don't wait up for me
It isn't quite the way you think
How low do you suppose I'd sink?
We can't bear to be apart
Oh I'm ...
You've told him lies now for so long
Yet still he's ready to forgive
He's got you back and that's all he wants
A lot more than I'm left with
You don't care now that you're gone
But do you know how much I miss you?
It's not fair after all you've done
That I'm so, I still want to kiss you
Throwing presents straight away
'Cause you could never take them home
Always scared what he might say
But al...
He became a man at twenty-three
And now he's got to take up all the seat
I never knew he was so bold
I really think she should be told
But that's what best friends are for
And does she have a best friend, anymore?
At home, she tells him little lies
Like she's not in the mood tonight
And when they're out with all his friends
He just forgets that she's even there
He's go this name on people's li...
I never thought I could live here on my own
But then I guess everybody'got to live somewhere
Four tins of paint made this our home
Oh I got less on the walls than I got in my hair
When we moved in here the dog was still a pup
Oh do you remember the time he chewed those curtains that we found?
I laughed the day you put them up
The day you left I tore them down
Don't laugh, don't even sigh
I tou...
Don?t say a word, don?t make this even more absurd
Anyway your eyes confirm what I already knew
More than all your words could ever do
Oh I?ll survive I guess, I?m just feeling powerless
Well when the one thing that you most adore is just about to walk out of the door
OK you?re sure it?s time to go but I?m begging you not to walk away,
Is there really nothing I can say to keep you here
Please ...
Oh, why do you catch my eye, then turn away?
I thought we said all the things we had to say
Shawn said he saw you holding hands with your new friend
How does it feel to know you've just won again?
Don't give me that
Because you were seen
Everyone thinks he looks daft
But you can have your dream
Can I keep that book of yours and maybe this one too?
Oh sure, I'll bring them 'round tomorrow, if t...
Hey you don't come near me
But how did you find this place?
Just brought me misery
I don't want to see your face
I don't think you hear me
How can I make this clear?
I just said don't come near me
You don't belong down here
Something deep down in Fleshworld
No I don't want to know
No I will not drink your drink
Go find some place to hide
I don't care what you think
You don't set foot inside
Se...
Why should I want to know his name?
What difference does it make?
You know I tried dead hard to keep away
I just had to call again
Where did you go last night?
What's that new place like?
Okay, I won't ask anymore questions
And then you can't tell me lies
Well, they always need good men
They're crying out for them
It's not the sort of job I'd do myself
But then I'm not him
Oh, he buys you pret...
Can't you come up with something better than that?
Oh I think I'd be more angry
If your answers weren't so daft
Oh you know I could
But do you really think I would?
When you go up to Granadaland on Sundays
Sally told me that you're practically kissing his feet
Oh, but he hasn't got a car
And so your list of names brought you to me
Anda friend in need
Is a pest indeed
When she uses everybody in...
I tried to call. You'd just gone out
We've got to talk. You going to be about?
Oh you don't have to tell me where you've been
It's bad enough I know you were with him
What made you want to take him there?
What made you think I wouldn't care?
And did you walk from the town into the heather
To where we used to lie down when we were together
No, I walked by, I sort of knew
I don't know why, maybe...
And then you said "No, I?m not from the south,
I am from further north than you"
With that you kissed me full on the mouth
And that was when I knew
you were either drunk or you wanted me
And, you know, either way I wasn?t going to disagree
But how did one crazy night turn into six weeks
How can we be going out if neither of us speaks
I think we?re the same in many ways
And I admit we had some ...
I should just get out of here and start driving south on Interstate 5
But I need to stay near, in case you suddenly remember that I'm alive
But I have this nagging fear that s** was all you needed
I've tried to persevere; I guess I've not succeeded
And is it s**ist to say
that I thought just boys were meant to behave in this way?
And though you seemed quite sincere,
will you even recognise my ...
No, it?s for you but then you didn?t need me to say that
?Cos you already knew, how many times is it today that
He?s had to call? It?s as if you?re still together
I don?t care at all, I?m just wondering whether
You think you and he will ever run out
Of things that you have to talk about
You said everything you will ever need so
Why can?t you just let him go
OK I lied, sometimes it?s like you n...
And this is for you
You must know it's for you
What else can I think about?
I knocked on your door
Until my fingers were sore
Although I'd guessed you were out
And what do I need?
Is it hunger or greed
That has brought me here?
And what will I find?
Aren't we two of a kind?
Oh I take back everything
I didn't mean a thing
And when you pull the strings
I don't think you feel a thing
Don't forget...
Lost your love of life? Too much apple pie
Oh have you lost your love of life? Too much apple pie
And now Harry's walked away with Johnny's wife
You've got to pick some people up
You've got to let some people go
But if Lee's name does come up
Oh well I really want to know
Because everybody loves a TV show
Lost your love of life? Too much apple pie
Oh have you lost your love of life? Too much a...
It was here in this aisle that I first heard her talking
And for a second or two I could have sworn it was you
Her hair, her smile, the way she was walking
Was exactly the same, I nearly called out your name
And though I knew it couldn?t have possibly been you
Oh I still stared for as long as I dared
Now I?m here every day ?cos you look like some housewife
If it sounds stupid, yes, I admit I?m...
I know what you're going to say
You want to do something scary today
Sure I want to have some fun
I just don't know about some of the things that you've done
But I'm your love slave
And you'll get what you crave
Oh you've got a crazy thirst
And every single kiss is just like the first
Oh you have sucked me dry
How many more times do you want me to try?
Because I'm your love slave
And you'll ge...
I heard another voice this morning on the 'phone
But just the other day I thought you said you slept alone
And yes I knew that laughter, okay, now i see
You wouldn't even know him if it hadn't been for me
Sometimes in the fading light
I can't help thinking back to, well, the way we were
Then I start feeling guilty lying next to her
I know, and it can't be right
Pretending that it's you. You st...
You've done it all
You've broken every ....
Robbed the rebel .... the ....
You ... the game
No matter what you say
... .. . ... . . . .
Your lies, your lies
How can you tell so many lies
Come up and see me, make me smile
I'll do what you want for a while
There's nothing left, oh ... and run away
Oh maybe you'll tarry for a while
It's just a test, a game for us to play
Win or lose, it's hard to...
So yeah I've got my brand new girlfriend,
And she's great in every way
And you've got your new lover there so I guess we're both ok
And I know that we've been through this
And we have to be apart
But the thought of him lying in our bed with you, well it still just breaks my heart
Mars sparkles down on me
He says he wants to meet me
oh I'm sure he's genuine
but how can i just shake his hand
whe...
It's really not the ... ...
Step on other people's feet
Now it must be ...ing
'Cos you were going out with him
'Cos you were going out with him
You were going out with him
It's not the same in this town
... ... ... his ...
Wasn't meant to drag him down
But that's exactly what it did
Part of him still wants you
Part of him is still with you
I'm not paralyzed by fear
... hoping makes me pretty ....
Sometimes these words just don't have to be said
I know how you both feel the heart can rule the head
Jealousy is an essential part of love
The hurting here below and the emptiness above, oh
There's always something left behind
There's always something left behind
Never mind oh never mind
The tender caresses that bring out the man
I can't still be drunk at five, oh I guess I surely can
Slowly ...
Oh no my life had not begun
Until your call, was it only yesterday?
I can't believe the things we've done
Since then, and God, I love the way you taste
But does it have to end right now?
Well can't you stay for another day?
Just say you're ill and come back out
I'll meet you here, then we'll disappear
I've got this feeling, oh it's like nothing I know
You've sent me reeling, and I don't want y...
Oh well of course I shouldn't be here watching people row
But it's just so scary knowing each word before it comes out of her mouth
And now that the moment's here, when she tells him to go
And I pulled that very same face just seven days ago
And if I could live one day again
That day would be the one
And when he tells her it's all lies, she's making patterns with her spoon
And when he looks in...
Some bits of snow still hanging in the air, but that's outside
Take off your clothes and lie down over there, oh that's just right
I sat by this window and just watched for you. No you weren't late
There was a thousand things I had to do, they can all wait
You don't take away my hand, like you ought to
You've become my family
I don't want to understand why I need you
You've just become my fami...
And they were left all alone
On that fateful day the budgie had a stroke
1940's bliss...how could it come to this?
Forgotten things they once knew
And now there's really only one thing left to do
But I think that I'm more scared
Because this country doesn't care
And one day this will all be yours
And one day this will all be yours
And one day this will all be yours
And one day this will all be...
And when I turn round to glance at you, you're staring
Your eyes are such a perfect blue that I can't look away
Did I get shy, maybe I didn't make it clear
Darling I think I'll always want you near
'Cause when I'm away from you, it's like somethings missing
That sounds drippy but I swear it's true, it just appeared and no
It wasn't rehearsed, there really was no warning
Well you're the first t...
When you push your hair away and stare at me with sleepy eyes
I get a feeling here, a feeling I don?t recognize
I wanna give you everything
I?ve been in love but this is worse
I just want to cling to you and save you from the universe
?Cos I have fallen in a way I?ve never done before
You?re all I need today I don?t want anything more
As unlikely as it seems, it?s as if you?ve just appeared
Ou...
You ask me how I feel, well suddenly this is all for real
It hasn?t seemed like that till now
I it?s as if you almost were still mine somehow
I hope you?ve realised just how I?m being so civilised
But it?s nearly time I went
We?ve got one last chance to have an argument
And watching you walk back to your car
Was the lowest point of my life so far
Don?t stare into my eyes, I couldn?t bear for y...
I thought you'd come round
And I know how this will sound
I said so much yesterday that I shouldn't have
So what did I do
After I talked to you?
I should've gone home straightaway but I couldn't have
Oh I stayed with you and my heart began to sink
I wanted you but not the way you think
So what did I say
Didn't mean it anyway
And I don't want anything that I should do
I know you're sad
Believe ...
Wear something bright and turn away
Imagine girls behaving in that way
Why don't you pack your bags and leave?
Look here's another bruise I didn't see
You can't say, it doesn't really matter
This isn't T.V., he isn't William Shatner
Oh, I've told you before
These days, you look so pale and thin
Wave down the bus and let's be rid of him
You've spent this night beside your T.V. set
Remember when...
She's my best friend
Simply not the average girl
She's my best friend
Understands me when I'm falling down down down
Oh it hurts to be that way
Oh it hurts to know I'm that kind of fellow
....
....
Caught his hand in the door
Guess that's where ...
If you want to see me
I'm sorry but I'm not around
If you ..
Turn around by the window where the light is
She's my best friend
Better than a dog or...
You're not such a nice girl after all
It's as much as you can do just to say hello
Have you got to stick your head inside that book?
Oh, you've noticed that I'm here, now please spare the dirty look
It's such a beautiful evening, oh would you like to go out?
Oh, pardon me for breathing
I know you walk a different way each night
To avoid the men on the building site
But I waited half an hour fo...
I've spent all day trying to decide
About the things you said last night
Did they mean nothing
Or were they filled with hidden clues?
And can you really have stayed till three
Orange slices and that Fall LP
I feel so lonely when I get back from seeing you
And when someone brings up your name
I can feel myself begin to change
It's like a panic
And a rushing sound in my head
A huge weight pressi...
I bumped into Joe on Victoria Road
And he told me something
About last weekend, he knows your new
He said he saw it coming
And those letters I wrote, so now I know
What you do with them
Well of course he looked, you sliced me up
And then showed it to him
He's changed around the posters on your wall
And finished all but one glass of your wine
His head's been on the pillows that I bought
And now...
She's a mixed up girl from a very different world
She's come, come, come, come, to a yellow sun
Whe she began she was a man
Go, go, go, go like a dynamo
She's my colonel spider
You know she's a deep space rider
I feel beautiful beside her
She doesn't need air; she can breathe anywhere
Come, come, come, come, and you can have some
We like to chase through outer space
Go, go, go, go, you know
Sh...
Is that a letter you're hiding from me?
Well I think I'm being used again, let me open it see
That's not what I wanted to hear
There's a time and place for everything that time is coming near
Do you have to spend so much time on your hair?
Well couldn't you started earlier? Of course you've got things to wear
No, I didn't pick up your coat on the way
Some of us have to work you know, have you ...
About what I said just before
You know, your clothes on the floor
I never meant to hurt you
I got carried away
I guess I've had a long day
Look, I'd sooner die than lose you
Over something like that
Oh, please, next time just shout back
And I didn't say that I hate you
I think sometimes you forget
And now look how we're up
Let's talk about it later
Why can't I ever say what I mean?
Why can't I...
You've never mentioned this before
Ohh
It seems I'm always last to know
And do I have to guess how you're going to feel each day?
You never have a word to say, you should have told me
I don't understand why you didn't tell me
Surely, you must know I hate what I'm doing
I don't want to upset you but it's yourself you're fooling
The last thing I need is part twelve of the row
But just why are yo...
I was just trying to hide a yawn
I think I've noticed that it?s dawn
But I'll stay longer if you want
She just caught you off your guard
And I know it can be hard
But that's really not the point
Well, just try to get away
Go and see your parents for a day
That's what I'd do myself
She is not the only one
And it?s easier said than done
But try and think of something else
You have got everything...
