If were having so much fun then why am I crying every monday?
Is it just to cancel out the laughter from thursday through to sunday?
I spend the next two days in my bed and wonder what its all about.
And as soon as I feel ok I know its time to go back out.
Ive had the same look on my face for the past two lonely years.
24 months of bargin pills and cheeky lines and stolen beers.
In all the pictures that I took my eyes are so black and wide
that you dont have to look too hard to see theres not much life inside
A new home to hang my heart is what I thought Id never find.
Fate has always intervined and now Ive got a girl in mind.
And Im meeting her next week when we get back to Glasgow.
Thats if we ever make it and dont get buried in the Dutch snow.
And if my instincts are right I will fall in love and then
have a laugh from time to time and youll never see me there again.
When I get home in the morning Trishas hosting a debate.
She says if you dont like the fish youre catching youve got to change the bait.
