I'm not denying that I was trying to appear nonchalant
You're not my wife; it's your own life and you can kiss who you want But that kiss lasted slightly longer than strictly was right You say you tried to break off but he was stronger Well maybe you might Not be quite as blame free as your expression suggests If he's only an old buddy why does he stare at your breasts? And is he always quite so zealous about keeping in touch? I don't usually get this jealous, but that was too much Please don't tease Just stay away from him from today I mean it, I've seen it You say it's all just for fun, but look what you've done Listen, babe, he was already trying to get his hand down your shirt! From what you're saying (well, unless you're lying!) he's going to get hurt Please don't tease Just stay away from him from today I mean it, I've seen it You say it's all just for fun, but look what you've done |

You are perfection personified
While, frankly, she's undignified Trust me, she disgusts me, she dares me, she scares me She bites me, excites me, annoys me, destroys me And if I say you're beautiful and kind I can hear her laughing in my mind Because she mocks me, she shocks me, she sours me, devours me She chokes me, provokes me, she hates me, she devastates me I didn't plan on falling for two girls at the same time I didn't plan on lying to you Listen darling, I'm really trying to ignore her but she just slips into my head Don't you think I'm feeling guilty? Well that's not what you said And you're right, she wears disgusting clothes And she chews her hair in ways I loathe But she charms me, she harms me, she fights me, delights me She breaks me, she takes me, she eats me, she defeats me I didn't plan on falling for two girls at the same time I didn't plan on lying to you Listen darling, I'm really trying to ignore her but she just slips into my head But don't you think I'm feeling guilty? Well that's not what you said |

The wind has died and your tears have dried
But you're still not angry with me Estrella please, don't just forgive me I wish you weren't so understanding when I've told you lies Why do you still believe these alibis? Because you must know by now, something is wrong, somehow And I thought by being sleazy That I could, well, just make this easy So why does your voice still sound so trusting when you ask me why Why don't you doubt me when I say I'll try? Because believe me, you should leave me You're making it too hard How can you disregard What I'm doing, what I'm pursuing? I don't know what you want to do But I am not the man for you You've never found out if I sleep around But that's because you haven't even tried to You don't even know when you're being lied to I can't believe you don't suspect some slight adultery You must see that you're much too good for me Because believe me, you should leave me You're making it too hard How can you disregard What I'm doing, who I'm pursuing? I don't know what you want to do But I am not the man for you Oh, yes believe me, yes, you should leave me You're making it too hard How can you disregard What I'm doing, who I've been screwing? I don't know what you want to do But I am not the man for you |

I could hardly believe I was hearing your voice at first
It's been such a long time; I was starting to fear the worst And in your last letter you talked about meeting some strange new men I began to think I might never see you again So now I feel so much better I have missed you so much I don't think a single day's gone by When I've not thought about you ... And how we spent those winter nights just sat by the fire, you in your 'cat girl' tights And we talked forever about the things you were going to do And I was so sure that, when all your dreams came true, we'd still be together You moved away; I didn't mind because I'm not one of the things that you've left behind Tell me it's true ... I have missed you so much I don't think a single day's gone by When I've not thought about you You moved away; I didn't mind because I'm not one of the things that you've left behind Tell me it's true |

And I was watching you from the observation deck
Until your plane became a shiny speck And if I wanted to sentimentalise I'd say the planes drew kisses across the sky So now, you're airborne But I could have sworn That you'd be here forever That wasn't so clever The vapour trail's dissipating fast I guess some things aren't made to last And I might be feeling quite morose But now I'm wondering if we ever got close Your plane keeps shrinking I stand here thinking Just how did I get this far Without guessing what you are? You just packed up all your stuff And said that you'd had enough But, really, you just flew away the moment things here got tough And all the problems we had Didn't really make you that sad You just never worked out how to take the good with the bad |

It's almost unfair that someone should be quite so stunning
When they said that you'd called for me I came running Your perfect hands Those few loose strands of hair that are out of place, falling across your face Your fingertips, your eyes, your lips The minute I closed the door you caressed me Then pulled me down to the floor and undressed me You tied my hands and whispered commands Then my whole body shook as you began to suck I cried your name and then I came You own me, you own me, and I'll do anything You own me, you own me, and I'm not arguing Anything that you want to do, I'll do it I'm completely enslaved by you; I'll do it Anything that you want to do, I'll do it I'm completely enslaved by you; I'll do it You own me, you own me, and I'll do anything You own me, you own me, and I'm not arguing You own me, you own me, and I'll do anything You own me, you own me, and I'm not arguing |

And by the way, I'm sorry for calling you loose
Oh, well, but look who you chose to seduce OK, well, none of those things I said were true Now I regret, continuing with the pretence Because it just doesn't make any sense Because I'd still like to be, well, friends with you So please don't ignore me, that'd be really the end I just lost a lover; I don't want to lose a friend That would be careless That would be careless But I'm not still in love with you No, I'm not still in love with you And I'm sure that together we can make this work As long as I stop being a jerk As long as you stop indulging his every whim Because I know I could put up with all of this mess Just to see you wearing that dress You know I'll be here when you're through with him No please don't ignore me, that'd be really the end I just lost a lover; I don't want to lose a friend That would be careless That would be careless But I'm not still in love with you No, I'm not still in love with you That would be careless That would be careless But I'm not still in love with you No, I'm not still in love with you |

And so exactly what went on between you two?
The night was hot; I was away from you It's time to confess; did you wear your red dress? Oh, I knew! You're forgiven now, but I still need to know Just tell me how and tell me slow Did he undo your bra; did he make it that far, yes or no? Again, oh please just tell me again And this time don't fail to give me every last detail I'm sincere, I really do want to hear What was in your head when you had a stranger in our bed And did he touch you there and did it feel like bliss? And did he stroke your hair; tell me about every kiss And when he made you come, was it more thrilling doing something like this? Again, oh please just tell me again And this time don't fail to give me every last detail I'm sincere, I really do want to hear What was in your head when you had a stranger in our bed |

Starry Eyed
by Cinerama Why have you locked the bathroom door? It's not as if I haven't seen you piss a thousand times before And why can't you look me in the face? Is it because somebody else has already moved into my place? But I shouldn't put any questions to you That I don't really want the answers to Why didn't you return my call? Well tell me is there any point in my being here at all? Why can't you just tell me what's wrong? Have I been totally nai"ve in trusting you all along? But I shouldn't put any questions to you That I don't really want the answers to |

When, finally,
I wake up you're removing last night's makeup You turn your head and then crawl back into bed There's an element of danger sleeping with a complete stranger But I confess, I'm so glad that you said yes Because the moment I saw you I knew, and I swore you'd be mine Because you looked divine And I can't help myself yawning; we didn't sleep 'til five this morning Is this for keeps? Well at least 'til your mobile beeps You take an age to read it and then immediately delete it I didn't see the text but I know what's coming next "I've got to change these sheets before he returns and learns that I've been doing this I'm sorry I've ruined it, but, God, I just couldn't stop!" I'm so glad you didn't Until you got that call you didn't mention him at all And I'm so glad you didn't OK, it wasn't right but it was such a perfect night ... So I help you hide my presence; it reminds me of my adolescence But this isn't fun; it feels like your boyfriend's won But why are you so remorseful? Look, it just happened and of course you will feel low, because you didn't say no And I'm so glad you didn't Until you got that call you didn't mention him at all And I'm so glad you didn't OK, it wasn't right but it was such a perfect night I'm so glad you didn't Until you got that call you didn't mention him at all And I'm so glad you didn't OK, it wasn't right but it was such a perfect night |

I heard exactly what you said but I know that he slept in our bed
You should really take more care because all it took was a single hair How would you, how could you not think that I'd realise?! You must know you're just so terrible at telling lies And did you really think I might not find out where you were last night? Believe me, darling, it wasn't hard, when you paid for the meal on your credit card! No don't flip, here's a tip: all it needs is a little thought This will surprise you, but I don't want you to get caught That's a price that I'll pay to stop you going away Keep telling your lies, I won't criticise if it means you will stay And you should probably tell him not to phone unless you're sure that you are going to be alone This hanging up without him saying a word was maybe fine just once, but it's becoming absurd! No don't flip, here's a tip: all it needs is a little thought This will surprise you, but I don't want you to get caught That's a price that I'll pay to stop you going away Keep telling your lies, I won't criticise if it means you will stay That's a price that I'll pay to stop you going away Keep telling your lies, I won't criticise if it means you will stay That's a price that I'll pay to stop you going away Keep telling your lies, I won't criticise if it means you will stay |

And we ate peaches in this very place
The juice was running down your face I poured coffee from a flask; it tasted funny And then we tried to make love by this lake I remember you began to shake And I was far too scared to ask if you were coming We bought 'H & E' because we thought it was dirty It's strange just how innocent it all looks today We tried to imagine ourselves naked at thirty But that always seemed such a long way away ... We looked for mountaintops to climb Just because we needed things to fill our time We were young and free, and boy, did we abuse it But everything was so clear-cut And this is such a cliche but You don't appreciate the joy until you lose it I was jealous and mean you were fragrant and flirty It's strange just how innocent it all looks today We tried to imagine being together at thirty But that always seemed such a long way away |
