Lyrics I'm Coping - The Long Blondes

I'm Coping

Young love’s a wonderful thing
He’s driving to her parents and she’s wearing his ring
How many times have you seen this one before?
Young love’s never’s 'ware that it’s troubled
I’m not saying this to burst your bubble
But just you wait till the next few months are over
All Nights I’ve spent
And you’re nearing a chance meeting
All Nights I’ve spent
It’s embarassing to think what I did then
Don’t talk to me about the seven year hitch
Seven weeks is long enough for me
They say I’m in pajamas and it’s all down hill from here
In bedrooms and staff rooms across the world people are planning their escape
You don’t believe me now but soon you will
All Nights I’ve spent
And you’re nearing a chance meeting
All Nights I’ve spent
It’s embarassing to think what I did then
I tried to show some interest
I tried to find out what he liked
But it didn’t get me anywhere at all
I tried to make aquatence
I gave up all my Friday nights
But it didn’t get me anywhere at all
Im just like Winston Churchill
Forced to deliver the bad news
Never in the field of human conflict have I been so unamused
Now if anybody wants me than you know where I am
If it’s an emergency but otherwise I’m coping on my own
I’m coping on my own
