For Those... - Tindersticks

Two hours twenty minutes

To one, five past

Now it’s laying somewhere out there in the ground

And I’ve lost you

I was cheated

It was something belonged only to me And now it’s gone through my own stupidity

And I lost you

I was cheated

Two whole years spent earning your love

Now it’s hanging around in the clouds

Well I’ve lost you

I was cheated

I’m cheated by my own vanity

Whispering rumours, bullying me Well I spent it It wasn’t worth it And for those who are not so beautiful as her

Not giving excuses, but oh…

When it’s originally tossed away

It can easily be reclaimed by her

By her

All those years spent building myself up Trying to stop my staring

And start taking two steps instead of one

But they’re so gone now
