Too Many Tears - Belle & Sebastian

I picked the right one

You picked the wrong one

Days of confessing

Nights spent obsessing

Recently I’ve been walking home

And take the long way through the rain

Sit in the cafe, the cinema

I watch the people making out

I’m lost I know it, I’m waiting for

Some kind of message, some kind of break

They say, good things happen if you wait

I get the river of tears to cross

I once was a butterfly

Me and him were the girl and guy

You’d wanna be with, a lot of fun

Can you believe it all went wrong?

I picked the right one

You picked the wrong one

Days of confessing

Nights spent obsessing

Woo!

Where did all the people go (Where did they go?)

'Cause when you break that’s when you know (Whoa, whoa)

Who’s on your side and who’s with him

And all the rubbish that’s in between

I didn’t mean to make me cry

You took the love and let it die

There’s a place where love remains

I’m gonna find it and there I’ll stay

There I’m gonna stay

The little dried up streams on my face are

Painting a horrow show

Just between myself and the mirror

I am a lonely soul

Oh but I try to overcome

Oh and I’m feeling numb

I listen to my friends' advice but it all falls flat

When I finally see her with him

That’s when I know

Oh, I should let it go

Let it go

Let it go

Let it go

I need something to make this right

I’m out of faith, I’m out of life

I join a lonely hearts' club band

Banging the drum for a different guy

But listen to me — what a drag!

This kinda thing’s just not my bag

They wanted me to be a king

They brought me up to fight and win
