Its a sign of devotion You made everybody else seem insane You filled my head with your notions You made everybody else seem so tame In your bed I lay reeling You made everybody else seem a shame I knew from the way I was feeling Nothing could ever be quite the same
I moved straight into your shoes I took up your cause and answered your phone I couldnt really imagine What life was like when I was alone Then I started to worry I thought of our lives left on the shelf Too much tv and curry Too much time spent on ourselves
We were sitting in waiting And I told you my plan You were far too busy writing Words that didn't scan And you lent me your records And I leant you an ear Funny how it seems to me now That you were never here Never really here
In our bed I lay reeling You made everybody else seem a shame I knew from the way I was feeling Nothing could ever be quite the same Its a sign of devotion You made everybody else seem so plain Then it felt like going through the motions First impressions never remain
We were sitting in waiting And you told me your plan I was far too busy writing Rhymes thatll never scan Now Ive sold all your records Cause they give me the fear Funny how it seems to me now That you were never here Never really here Never really here
