Lyrics
Here we go -here's all the things that both of us hoped would never happen
Did you know - 38.6% is not quite like it is in Bollywood movies
Go away - did you never realise that sorry's just another way of saying 'slow down'?
Far away - did you never expect when she said 'go' she really meant 'somebody come to me'?
Did she look away? (no no no no no no)
Did she smile and say: (no no no no no no)
"It's a rainy day"?
(no no no no no no)
You and I - never talk about the things that really really really really really really really count
Hello goodbye - it never seems to touch the parts that other beers can never reach maybe maybe maybe maybe
Did she wake you up? (no no no no no no)
Did she make it up? (no no no no no no)
Did she try to say:
"It's just a rainy day"?
(no no no no no no)
