Bicycle Thieves - The Pale Fountains

You were the one who said: 'Look, boy, you’re always running'

But you didn’t know the things that I had on top of me And this wall to wall things that you’re all so very fond of Well, it’s harmin' me.

And when I met you in the subway station

You looked as though you hadn’t seen the queen’s face for a while

Well, I ain’t got much but you can take my future

It’s not doin' me any good so you lend it for a while.

Why why why why why?

Come on, why do you wanna say these things to me?

I’m gonna stay so far away from you, girl

That’s if you stay so far away from me.

I’ve been away too long and I’m tired of losing you

And all the dagger things you want to say to me, well, I can be dumb for you

But if I can get some sleep tonight

You’ll know it’s almost half the fight for me.

Why why why why why?

Come on, why do you wanna say these things to me?

Well, this wall to wall thing you’re all so very fond of Don’t you know it’s crucifying me?

And when I see you in the subway station

You looked as though you hadn’t seen the queen’s face for a while

Well, I ain’t got much but you can take my future

You know it’s not doin' me any good so you can lend it for a while.

Why?

Girl, why do you wanna say these things to me?

And you know this wall to wall thing you’re all so very fond of Oooh, it’s crucifying me.

And when I see you in the subway station

You looked as though you hadn’t seen the queen’s face for a while.
