In one single moment your whole life can turn 'round 

I stand there for a minute starin' straight into the ground 

Lookin' to the left slightly, then lookin' back down 

World feels like it's caved in - proper sorry frown 

Please let me show you where we could only just be, for us 

I can change and I can grow or we could adjust 

The wicked thing about us is we always have trust 

We can even have an open relationship, if you must 

I look at her she stares almost straight back at me 

But her eyes glaze over like she's lookin' straight through me 

Then her eyes must have closed for what seems an eternity 

When they open up she's lookin' down at her feet 



* Dry your eyes mate 

I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up 

There's plenty more fish in the sea 

Dry your eyes mate 

I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts 

But you've got to walk away now 

(It's over)



So then I move my hand up from down by my side 

It's shakin', my life is crashin' before my eyes 

Turn the palm of my hand up to face the skies 

Touch the bottom of her chin and let out a sigh 

'Cause I can't imagine my life without you and me 

There's things I can't imagine doin', things I can't imagine seein' 

It weren't supposed to be easy, surely 

Please, please, I beg you please 

She brings her hands up towards where my hands rested 

She wraps her fingers round mine with the softness she's blessed with 

She peels away my fingers, looks at me and then gestures 

By pushin' my hand away to my chest, from hers 



[Repeat *]



And I'm just standin' there, I can't say a word 

'Cause everythin's just gone 

I've got nothin' 

Absolutely nothin' 



Tryin' to pull her close out of bare desperation 

Put my arms around her tryin' to change what she's sayin' 

Pull my head level with hers so she might engage in 

Look into her eyes to make her listen again 

I'm not gonna fuckin', just fuckin' leave it all now 

'Cause you said it'd be forever and that was your vow 

And you're gonna let our things simply crash and fall down 

You're well out of order now, this is well out of town 

She pulls away, my arms are tightly clamped round her waist 

Gently pushes me back and she looks at me straight 

Turns around so she's now got her back to my face 

Takes one step forward, looks back, and then walks away 



[Repeat *]



I know in the past I've found it hard to say 

Tellin' you things, but not tellin' straight 

But the more I pull on your hand and say 

The more you pull away 



[Repeat *]
