so we kept walking
but all those steps we took
were they taking us closer
or further away?

and we sat
you had your arms around me
with your face into my neck...
everything was ok

and when it was time
for the end of the night
you held me tight
for one last time...

this is ridiculous
its all generalising
the fact that you drove home last night
is not all that surprising

who is at the end of the rope?
who is holding on the tightest?
who has the softest, gentlest hands?
who will give and take till they win?
who will let it slip through their fingers?
who will kiss the rope burns better?
when the rope drops to the ground, one will wlk away victorious
but who will coil the rope and put it away?
who is left to take care of the mess?

i heard
every word
you said

it flew
through you
to my head

i parcelled them up
changed them around
circled some out
to make it sound
like what i wanted to hear

i am
what you need
what you want
cant you see?

you are
what i need
what i want
why cant we?

i heard every word
changed them round
till even i
thought you wanted me

i can read between the lines
you're not so clever i cant see

am i kidding myself?

when i disappeard out of your life, did you miss me?
when i saw you at the you am i gig
did it cross your mind to kiss me?

i often wonder what went on in your mind
was it a mirror image of mine?
was i just some girl you tolerated?
will you burst the bubble you inflated?

i thought you were a big star
new all about music
could take me far
did you laugh at me or wish that i would stay?

just a little time
to put things in perspective
i go here and you go there
and all the rest we share

seems easy enough to me
easy enough to be
the bearer of bad news

i just saw a man who i swear was mickey rooney
the spitting image of the hollywood star
driving round port noarlunga
ina beaten up old car

and why wouldnt it be him?
theres nowhere else i'd rather be
and why couldnt it be him?
anythings a possibility

tonight would be the night
he's waiting with a parcel in his hand
whos in that car? in the drivers seat?
mickey rooney waving? just an old man

and why wouldnt it be him?
theres nowhere else i'd rather be
and why couldnt it be him?
anythings a possibility

im not worth the risk
but i made it to your list
of things you can look back on
with no regrets

you made it to my list too
but in a different category
a gold medal just for you

i keep it in my pocket
folded up here on my left
you know you kissed me there?

and i remember how you feel
the taste of you
i can see you, eyes open or closed

i can feel you without you in my arms

im sure i pressed pause
but everything keeps trying to run
i tried to put you away
so i can move on

like you have moved on

when you open your eyes
you see somebody else
somebody so familar
you know her inside and out

i know im outside looking in

i try not to close my eyes anymore
but i see you anyway
you've taken permanent residency in my head
with a holiday home in my heart

do you remember smiling at me
before you knew me?
can we do it again?
relive it again and i
might not smile back this time

i know what you have
and what you have to lose
i must seem so small compared,
so insignificant

you look so inviting
but i'll have to decline
as much as it hurts to say so
i cant make you mine

you agree we've got the chemistry
but sometimes things explode
could be fun like fireworks
could be the end of everything you know

i understand

i fell asleep thinking of you
before i opened my eyes
i made a wish that you'd be there

instead of going on with my day
i stayed in bed and put on your cd
some songs i knew which made me smile
every song reminded me of you

did you know you've been the inspiration
for my last 4 songs?
i wonder will you pick that up
and will you sing along?
