The morning's don't make sense
'Cos I've been lying awake too late
But how could I ever close my eyes
Or look away from you
City to city
In beds and halls
And forcing my best friends to lose touch
A boy sits in the kitchen
And convinces us all that it's 1969
He's going to the moon
And we're all coming too
Another art student
Can't help but turn me on
She says she knows what records I like
Switch off the light and it will be alright
"I've kept one copy back
Just for you
Sealed with a kiss
Now don't look so blue
Do you know what some people would do
To be where you are now"
So I brought down a record
A Fall LP from 1979
Everyone missed the point
And I felt alone
The latest excuse is
That it's simply not the right time
You don't like to admit it
I bet you can't remember her birthday
Life is empty unless it's going wrong
And days are wasted
Unless they begin and end with you
Kate told a lie
That she was in love with you in 1999
Everyone looked to the floor
Pretended not to hear
We stood up and left
Like we've done every night this week
I swear one day
I will stop returning calls
