Cross My Heart - Everything But The Girl

Now and then

Do you wash your hands of me again?

Wish me anywhere but home

Drunk and on the end of your phone

From time to time

Do you guess what’s really on my mind?

Guess that «How you keeping now?»

Means «Where are you sleeping now»

But of course it’s not polite

To ask you where you spent last night

And if I did you might reply

That I have no right

And anyway I’m fine

Glad that you’re no longer mine

If I should tell a lie

I’ll cross my heart and hope to die

You’d be appalled

If you knew what I was doing

When you called

Yes, I can see I’m blundering

Always end up wondering

Will it ever be alright

To ask you where you spent last night

And can it be polite

The way we never write

Of course I don’t have the time

And anyway I’m fine

If I should tell a lie

I’ll cross my hear and hope to die

I hope we never die
