| Ever since her father died
|
| She said she wouldn’t give it up until she was married
|
| Even when her conscience and her conscience went swimming
|
| She would keep her dignity
|
| We used to take sleeping pills together
|
| And watch Nightmare on Elm Street naked on my best friends living room floor
|
| On your living room floor
|
| And ever since she claimed she tried to die when she was five
|
| Continuing that lie has been a reason to stay alive
|
| So don’t call me if all you’re gonna do is bring me crashing and burning back
|
| through your window
|
| Just walk me through the notes
|
| Let me pass out when I pass out and when I say stop I really, really,
|
| really fucking mean it
|
| We swim about inside each other
|
| We never loved we were just lovers
|
| And I used to steal smack from your brother
|
| So I write this on the back of my face
|
| In the pub where I live
|
| But they don’t know my name
|
| And if I’m fighting with anyone Jess I’m glad that it’s you
|
| 'Cause you sing my songs with more passion than I do
|
| So fuck me and call me your big, grizzly bear
|
| We’ll make love in the night and we both won’t be there
|
| But your plane lands at midnight, I’ll be home, safe and sound
|
| But as soon as I’m sober I’ll come round
|
| Yeah as as soon as I’m sober I’ll come round
|
| Yeah as as soon as I’m sober I’ll come round
|
| Yeah as as soon as I’m sober I’ll come round
|
| And if I ever get sober I’ll come around |
