Lyrics
It's Not You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You wear your smile like it was going out of fashion
Dress to inflame, but douse any ideas of passion
You carry your love in a trinket, hanging round your throat
Always inviting, always exciting, but I must not take off my coat
Well, I'm tired of hanging around, I want somebody new
I'm not sure who I've got in mind, but I know that it's not you, that it's not you
You ask me questions that I never wanted to hear
I am the only one just until you finish this year
I would murder you if I had an alibi here in my hand
But you just laugh because you don't understand
That I'm tired of hanging around, I want somebody new
I'm not sure who I've got in mind, but I know that it's not you
That it's not you, that it's not you, that it's not you, that it's not you
That it's not you, no, it's not you, that it's not you, it's not you, it's not you
