Happy Anniversary

I see you in the supermarket

Buying your groceries

Riding on the 29 bus

Down to the city

You never miss a birthday candle

Cos everybody wants a piece

And my heart still aches for you sometimes

So save a little something for me

I just don't want to hurt no more

Baby I just don't want to hurt no more

I just don't want to hurt no more

Baby I just don't want to hurt no more

 

People have been asking after you

Asking why I don't bring you around

As if it's any of their business

Why I feel so goddamn proud

Knowing my life could have been so different

And that scares the hell out of me

Cos what if I slip up

What if I drink up

And lose it all like 1 2 3

I just don't want to hurt no more

Baby I just don't want to hurt no more

I just don't want to hurt no more

Baby I just don't want to hurt no more

Now my glass is empty

And no one wants to be round me

Treading on eggshells

I promise ill get help

Lord I just want some peace

Just one more for the road

How very naive of me

Wish I'd never met you

Grown to detest you

Happy anniversary

I just don't want to hurt no more

Baby I just don't want to hurt no more

I just don't want to hurt no more

Baby I just don't want to hurt no more
