What You Could've Won

It's closing time and it's getting late

Can you fetch my coat?

'Cause I don't feel too great anymore

But I want to stay

Don't you want to stay as well?

I don't think that you do

I've got this funny feeling

That you don't feel like I do

This conversation's just passing you by

I know it, I can see it in your eyes

You've had one too many, lo and behold

You're telling the secrets that can't be told

It feels so special, it feels so right

But then you knock me back and I fall

I fall to the floor

And all I wanted was a kiss

And all I wanted was a chance tonight

I'm walking home, I'm pissed and I'm frozen

My mind's being warmed up by that little token of you

In your little way

But still they're sleeping in your bed today

And now beeps the phone

I fumble round to answer but I end up putting it on hold

Late night taxis keep passing me by

I feel sick and look to the sky

I've had one too many, lo and behold

The late night lovers stay out in the cold

I ring your number and feel so bold

You kick me into touch and I fall, I fall to the floor

And all I wanted was a kiss

And all I wanted was a chance tonight

And yeah, your ignorance was bliss

Yeah, your ignorance was paradise

So just give me a chance

Just give me a sign or something

Tell me what you want

'Cause before too long there'll be somebody else

It's then that you'll know you want him more

You call out my name but I fail to respond

Now he knocks you back and you fall

You fall to the floor

You're not just a number

Upon a computer

Or a waiting list

You're not just a number

Upon a computer

Or a shopping list
