lyrics

Hello again, white paper
Please don't think I didn't try
I ditched my friends, I cast a light
I almost got it down last night
But now I'm washed-up in the morning
With the storm gone from the air
And I just can't seem to care
Nah I just can't seem to care

And hello again, my darling
heard you dream aloud last night
Was it the stomping in the stable
Or the knowledge of your navel
kept you anxiously uplooking
Like a baby in a kitchen
Tell me what you're thinking
And I'll tell you where to look


I love you there, my pretty
So I'll tie you in my sheets
Can't take these winter nights alone
I've never been too good with phones
Always looking for some party
With our hearts of clubs and diamonds
Always memorising lines
For better playing of the part

And I love you there, white lie
You keep the cheap requests away
You never wait to count to ten
You never back down, make amends
Oh though I love your snowy whiteness
now I'll wrap myself in red
and paint my deadbeat face
Up like a saint and dance all night


Sayonara, stationery
hate to keep you waiting there
I banged my head against the wall
I moaned in bars and toilet stalls
But like a ladder in a basement
I'm useless and I'm high
And I'm too stiff and cold to climb
I'm too stiff and cold to try

Guess I'll see you, sleeping beauty
I know you'll always be on call
But me I'll stick to sunset races
And I'll visit lots of places
Keep a finger on the trigger
Never figure in the cost
Cos while we're only ever lost
It makes the world seem pretty big
