Clarinet - The Delgados

Take the easy way out, and I’ll meet you at my loft

Faking intimacy is an artform of mine

Say hello, say goodbye, say whatever I’m feeling

Fingers crossed;

there’s no point to these lies

'Cause you’re getting nothing 'cause everything’s lies

Don’t be scared in the morning

Just be scared for tonight

Lonely girls live for longing

They wish;

they dream.

Hanging out of my window at dawn at the week end

Onion badges, the bird’s chariot is alright (?)

These are times I can’t see now when we are together

It’s not crass;

I’m not talking of doves

It’s just I’m afraid I forgot what I love

Don’t be scared in the morning

Just be scared for tonight

Lonely girls live for longing

They wish and they dream but they live, they must fly

No, I won’t be your friend

And I’ll die if you’re right

I’ve had friends who are shy

But a token appears by my head anymore

Silver coins land on the floor

Let’s go out for the night, get some chips the car

Tell me what you’ve been reading, the day and the TV

Make me laugh for awhile when I fret

And make me remember;

I cannot forget

Don’t be scared in the morning

Just be scared for tonight

Lonely girls live for longing

They wish and they dream but to live they must fly

No, I won’t be your friend

And I’ll die if you’re right

I’ve had friends who are shy

But I tale my peers by my head anymore (?)

Silver coins land on the floor
