Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I wanna see  you tonight
 What's the point?
 All we do  is fight
 I've loved you
 So long
I  donno who I'd be  without
 My head hurts
 I wish I'd  never woke up
 I feel worse
 than when S Club 7  broke up
 I hate the day
 It hates me
 So does everybody  else
 I sit here drooling  on my own again
 and like a routine  episode of Friends
 What does it mean  to be American?
 Is it
 feelings,  coffee and
 I'll be there for you?
 x2
 Later on  me and a bottle will hook up  to have some fun
 Then I'll call  your house at twelve to let you know  that I'm drunk
 Say I'm sorry  Mr C, I was just looking  for your son
 How are you, incidentally,  do you know if  he's out alone?
 There is this book  he lent to me something like seven  months  ago
 I'm gonna burn  it in the street be so kind as  let him know
 that I'm dealing
 with this badly
 and
 could he please get back to me?
 x2
 Since you've gone  my only friends are Billy Bragg  and the Jam
 Though my time  with you has got me feeling oh  so k.d. lang
 I think you're right  about the New Kids on the Block
 And I agree  now Billy Joel does not rock
 Wish I could tell  you all the things that Woody Allen  helps me see
 How Annie Hall  is starting to seem quite a lot like you  and me
 It took a while  to come around to David  Bowie's new CD
 And it's much  too late to give back your Magnetic  Fields EP
 Can I  keep it
 by my pillow?
 Fucking loved  it
 How I long to tell you so
 x2
 When I get  to sleep I'll dream again of canopies  and grapes
 And wake shaking  from the knowledge that the mattress  holds your  shape
 I assume  my phone is dead because it  hasn't rung for months
 If tomorrow  is the funeral do you think  that you could come?
 I could give  you back your music and your t-shirts  and your socks
 Walk to Jazz's  house in SOHO cry into  her letter box
 Spend some time  out to resuscitate my  soul
 Take up smoking  and drink carrot juice and  grow
 Teach the mattress  to expel you from its folds
 Then dry my eyes  and keep on walking til the motion  makes me strong
 Until one day  i realise I don't remember  that you're  gone
 We'll be strangers
 who were lovers
 I'll recover
 It's so weird how time goes on
 Comment and rate please!
