Its dark but I dont want to find the light
And I cant close my eyes
The only one you really trust
Is the one who always lets you down
Its not my place to give advice
When all Ive done was make mistakes
I didnt mean to tell you everything
And anyway, well its too late in the day
Stray talk all alone
Swinging out of view
Im flailing round the room
And Im staring out at you
Dont burn your hand when you turn out the light
Your cheek is turning red
You always wake me with your warmth
And your arms wrapped around my neck
The broken silence lasts for seconds
And normal service is resumed
I didnt mean to tell you anything
And anyhow, well its too soon for that now
Stray talk all alone
Swinging out of view
Well Im flailing round the room
And Im staring out at you
You sat there looking like a prize
So I went back on what Id said
And now were both left out to dry
Put out to sea and left to drift
Were drifting out to sea
Were drifting out to sea
You said the leaves are like that day
And now theyre dead and charred
Stray talk all alone
Swinging in and out of view
Well Im flailing round the room
And Im staring out at you
