A Slow Divorce

So you don't want her anymore

You don't want her anymore

And you must have been born

For more than this of course

More than a cold cold bed

And a slow divorce

You let your life become like soap

Now there's nothing as cruel as hope

And hearts don't get broken

By cruelty or force

But by a cold cold bed

And a slow divorce

You used to want her touch so hard

Never take the time to sleep

But now you roll off and count sheep

Don't you think that she should know

What you see with your eyes closed

And what did she get

For backing the wrong horse

She got a cold cold bed

And a slow divorce

You used to want her touch so hard

Never take the time to sleep

But now you roll off and count sheep

So you don't want her anymore

But you don't sound as if you're too sure

She'll keep on speaking English

While you reply in Morse

And you'll have your cold cold bed

And a slow divorce

A slow divorce
