the distractions - wise lyrics

Loading...

i swore i’d never share a room with you again
yet here we are with twin beds pushed apart
i know full well that i will only get to sleep
if i give myself at least an hour’s start
time has been gentle with me
you have not fared so well
and as a lone car p-sses
the glint of your gl-sses
by your bedside casts a spell

the girls all used to fall for the twinkle in those eyes
when you came undone, i would be the one to be wise

though you stood centre stage with the spotlight all your own
i would take the words and put them in your mouth
even then i knew full well, that there always comes a time
when the crow’s feet come and swallows must fly south
time has come calling for you
whereas i can’t complain
though we may not have long
i’ll write just one last song
and we’ll try our luck again

the girls all used to fall for the twinkle in your eyes
when you were in despair, i was always there to be wise

i could tell you that i’m sorry that
i left you in the lurch
but the pair of us were living half our lives
as i hear a once familiar noise
see the stripes that once we shared
i think we’d best get home now to our wives

the girls all used to fall for the twinkle in those eyes
and as i look at you, there’s still work to do to be wise
and when all’s said and done, i will be the one to be wise
