I could’ve done with a little more information up front but I know it doesn’t work that way sometimes
Oh help me baby ‘cause I need to be sure
If time is my enemy then I’m waging war
I’ve never been in this situation before
I’m into you but what can I do when you’re half out the door
I never wanted any
But now I’m back for more
Why am I crying for you
On the bathroom floor?
I thought that you could be the lead to fill my supporting role
But these drinks ain’t gonna drink themselves, I’ve gotta think how to get myself out of this hole
I could’ve done with a little more information up front but I know it doesn’t work that way sometimes
So give me your location - I’ll come and make it harder on you and I
‘Cause I can take a punishment and learn to lean into the silence
It’s just a shame, it’s a shame, a shame that it was always gonna go this way
It was always gonna go this way
I’ve been the victim of my own circumstance
Red flags all signalling the end of romance
I should’ve seen this coming way in advance
If I was she or if she were me then we might stand a chance, oh
I never wanted any
But now I’m back for more
Why am I crying for you
On the bathroom floor?
I thought that you could be the lead to fill my supporting role
But these drinks ain’t gonna drink themselves, I’ve gotta think how to get myself out of this hole
I could’ve done with a little more information up front but I know it doesn’t work that way sometimes
So give me your location - I’ll come and make it harder on you and I
‘Cause I can take a punishment and learn to lean into the silence
It’s just a shame, it’s a shame, a shame that it was always gonna go this way
And I don’t know what to say
I got caught in your web when I said I’d try and stay away
So I’ll get back on the plane
Where I’ll be rolling my eyes so hard I can see my brain
Here we go again!
I could’ve done with a little more information up front but I know it doesn’t work that way sometimes
So give me your location - I’ll come and make it harder on you and I
‘Cause I can take a punishment and learn to lean into the silence
It’s just a shame, it’s a shame, a shame that it was always gonna go this way
It was always gonna go this way
What goes around comes around, doesn’t mean that it’s fair
I could’ve done with a heads up before I got in the air
What goes around comes around and it’s starting again
You could’ve called me up before I even got on the plane
What goes around comes around, doesn’t mean that it’s fair
I could’ve done with a heads up before I got in the air
What goes around comes around and it’s starting again
You could’ve called me up before I even got on the plane
What goes around comes around, doesn’t mean that it’s fair
I could’ve done with a heads up before I got in the air
What goes around comes around and it’s starting again
You could’ve called me up before I even got on the plane

When I was last in London didn’t have a clue
It was the last time I’d ever be seeing you
My fingerprints were in your apartment and the embassy
The visa part was easy but not so much for you and me, no
Now I don’t have to wait for you updates honey
Well I can heave a sigh for the last time and leave you behind
All of my friends knew I’d get there in the end
But I’ll listen to them sooner next time
I’ve found myself with time I don’t know how to spend
The nine-to-fivers save it for a big weekend
Rebecca says that it can be Christmas any day you like
And as I’m getting better I see she’s absolutely right, yeah
Now I don’t have to wait for you updates honey
Well I can heave a sigh for the last time and leave you behind
All of my friends knew I’d get there in the end
But I’ll listen to them sooner next time
I was pranging out in Singapore
And I thought that I was dying on the airport floor
I get conflicting messages in my head
Trying to warn me that our love is dead
Now I don’t have to wait for you updates honey
Well I can heave a sigh for the last time and leave you behind
All of my friends knew I’d get there in the end
But I’ll listen to them sooner next time
Now I don’t have to wait
Now I don’t have to wait

It started in the middle of March when everything was going fine
OK, it’s the beginning of May so why are you still on my mind?
‘Cause you don’t know what you want, neither do I, but does it really matter?
You should come over for a while if this is ever over
For what it’s worth, I think it would be terribly absurd
To never learn what this could mean had the world not been adjourned
From what I’ve heard, although my speech was evidently slurred
It would be the worst if we were past the point of no return
Frustrating having to wait but nothing we can do at all
It makes sense not to be too intense so we should keep it casual
‘Cause you know there doesn’t have to be an “us” - just wanna know you better
I hate to be so obvious but I don’t need forever
For what it’s worth, I think it would be terribly absurd
To never learn what this could mean had the world not been adjourned
From what I’ve heard, although my speech was evidently slurred
It would be the worst if we were past the point of no return
For what it’s worth, I think it would be terribly absurd
To never learn what this could mean had the world not been adjourned
From what I’ve heard, although my speech was evidently slurred
It would be the worst if we were past the point of no return

I let you push me around from pillar to post, yeah
And I’ll be making the most of it while I can stay in the palm of your hand
But recently I’ve seen more mornings than I should’ve done
And ignored all of the warnings ‘bout feeling anything for anyone, anyone
‘Cause it would give me so much pleasure
To let you let me down forever
‘Cause I can’t seem to drag myself away
And though I know I could do better
Just one word brings us back together
‘Cause baby baby baby I love the way you use my name
I know I’ve set myself up for an irreparable loss
And I’ll be counting the cost of it in my head ‘til I’m emotionally dead
It seems to be that I, I can never quite be satisfied
With what’s sitting right in front of me - I could be so good if I tried, if I tried
‘Cause it would give me so much pleasure
To let you let me down forever
‘Cause I can’t seem to drag myself away
And though I know I could do better
Just one word brings us back together
‘Cause baby baby baby I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
It’s something that I can’t explain
I love the way you use my name
‘Cause it would give me so much pleasure
To let you let me down forever
‘Cause I can’t seem to drag myself away
And though I know I could do better
Just one word brings us back together
‘Cause baby baby baby I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
