Lyrics
Quickly she came, dressed up for fame
Riding her perfume downstairs
Make-up like glue, she danced round the room
To the sound of her corduroy flares
"Let's go to town, taxis all round
We could stop for a couple of beers"
He looks at it all, stifles a yawn
She tries not to look like she cares
What do I do now
Are we going under?
What did I do wrong
I thought we had it sorted
Out the other day
Maybe I'm just stupid
Can't we try again?
No one told me it was raining
Can't face a club they walk to a nearby pub
Watch a couple of bands
Draining the glass, they walk home at last
Reaching for each others' hands
Nothing is said, he goes to bed
Dreaming of her on his own
She stays up all week watching him sleep
Scared that she'll wake up alone
What do I do now
Are we going under?
What did I do wrong
I thought we had it sorted
Out the other day
Maybe I'm just stupid
Can't we try again?
No one told me it was raining
And oh I'll miss you every day of your life
And oh you'll feel it too, you're not that strong
You know I'm on to you
And oh I'll miss you every day of your life
And maybe when you're dead, I'll get some rest
From holding onto you
What do I do now then
Are we going under?
What did I do wrong?
I thought we had it sorted
Is there someone else
Or am I too familiar?
Was it when I said
I wanted to have children?
Tore up all your photos
Didn't feel too clever
Spent the whole of Sunday
Sticking you together
Now I'd like to call you
But I feel too awkward
Some things need explaining
No one told me it was raining
