Kitchen Table - Jake Bugg

I wrote this song by your kitchen table

Maybe it all seems okay

Sometimes it’s better just to laugh than to run away

Maybe I’ll leave you in the coming winter

And all of your dreams soon fade away

Sometimes it’s better just to run than to play your game

When we were laying down

And you held my hand

Amongst the opal flowers

When we sat outside

And I see it’s over now

We just grew out of love

Out from the darkness

Your heartlessness haunting my future

Down on all fours

You bark bright at the descending moonlight

You’ll be with the rest of the lonely people

Ones who live in a cold dark place

Sometimes it’s better just to run than to face the pain

I’ve not been seeing you for some time now

And still you choose to hold my hate

But after how I handled it you’re hardly to blame

I feel you read my mind

And look through my soul

As our love grew fainter

And your face grew wetter

All of the rest of our days together

I may have never seemed the same

Sometimes there’s nothing we can do when we all change

And now my hearts in two

Not a half for you

Another situation

Now the mornings golden
