|
And you, |
|
Were right to bide your time and not buy into my misery |
|
Well the good things are never free |
|
Do the colours of the rainbow look the same to everyone? |
|
And I, |
|
Was rushing round in circles for a reason to believe |
|
Wipe the slime from off your sleeve |
|
You could follow me for weeks |
|
And I'm not going anywhere |
|
Sometimes it's hard to love someone |
|
Till the day that they are gone |
|
And I |
|
Just had a dream the other night |
|
I was married to the Queen |
|
And Madonna lived next door |
|
I think she took a shine to me |
|
And the kids were all grown up |
|
But I had to turn her down |
|
'Cos I was still in love with you |
|
I'm turning Madonna down |
|
I'm calling it my best move |
|
I'll get her tickets to what she needs |
|
I remember doing nothing on the night Sinatra died |
|
And the night Jeff Buckley died |
|
And the night Kurt Cobain died |
|
And the night John Lennon died |
|
I remember I stayed up to watch the news with everyone |
|
And that was a lot of nights |
|
And that was a lot of lives |
|
Who lost the tickets to what they need? |
|
And I |
|
Was busy finding answers while you just got on with real life |
|
Always hoped you'd be my wife |
|
But I never found the time |
|
For the question to arrive |
|
I just disguised it in a song |
|
And songs are never quite the answer |
|
Just a soundtrack to a life |
|
That is over all too soon |
|
Helps to turn the days to night |
|
While I was wrong and you were right |
|
And this was a lesson learned |
|
I'm happy to be your fool |
|
And get you tickets to what you need |
|
I'm turning the lights down low |
|
I'm ready to make my move |
|
I'll get you tickets to what you need |
