I know you never
wanted to hurt me
but you did
sure you do
Shouting at the neighbour's dog
you smile
so heavenly drunk
There's a car out waiting
on the city street
for you to come out and shine so bright
And I look into the dusty space
and I can't let you go
It should have been you
my old forgotten love
It should have been you
my old forgotten love
And the flowers built a shelter
and the stick in my heart
growin' bigger by the day
And it's oh, so quiet in here
'cept some furious sounds from the haze
From the mess of my bed I know things must be done
do you care to run - do you care to hide
I don't know how I will achieve it
but I just can't leave without you
It should have been you
my old forgotten love
It should have been you
my old forgotten love
And the days are so much longer now
the night is just a wasteless crime
but I promise you neither of them could break
me down.
If you only come and save me now
from all the things inside my eyes
come on
come on
come on
My days always looking for a brighter spot
but I don't want it, I don't need it
If you come and share my roads
I won't let you down
It should have been you
my old forgotten love
It should have been you
my old forgotten love
And the mallards do their funny serenade
and force me to see and I feel silly as the birds.
Dear, do you care to know
this morning I had the feeling of dying again.
And the car that bring the light
is still a day ahead
and time is on my side
I know I have to be
better known in the morning
