Lyrics Sir Walter - The Book Club

Sir Walter

She said oh, I’ve called you fourteen times
I said oh-oh-oh, I didn’t realise
She said when on earth will you get home?
And I’m thinking woah-oh-oh, just leave me alone
She just can’t stand to be lonely
And I quite like being alone
And the closer she pulls me
The more that my mind wants to roam
Ah I didn’t tell you 'cause I knew that you’d disapprove
Quarter past four and then more and still no word
Now the morning is breaking and the key is forced upside down
And I didn’t want to knock but this lock is being stubborn and cruel
And I’ve been desperately thinking upon my way home
Of the perfect excuse to extend my parole
Now the castle is sinking
Because it’s not made of stone
I make promises that I can’t keep
And then I kiss her on the forehead
While she sleeps
I make promises
'Cause she just can’t stand to be lonely
And I quite like being alone
But the closer she pulls me
The more that my mind wants to roam
I make promises that I can’t keep
And then I kiss her on the forehead
While she sleeps
I make promises
