Waltz Back Again

We had a good run

Drifting around 'neath the stars

Top floor of Spooners, over bonnets of cars

Under pissy bridges to the dark bridlepath

Doin' our worst, king and queen of these bars

From the back room of The Nag's Head

Watching through the arch like a sage

As if I'm not on the very same page

But it's me who drinks alone here

Amid the dark wood and stale beer

And the night, it explodes

In a white hot blur of street lights

Curious women who stand under lights

Looking at me like a victim of drugs

But I love this feeling

And it fits like a glove

But while I want my nights quiet

Oh, I hear sirens

And oh, why deny it?

You are to blame

So before I turn to leave you

Thanks for the good times

Together, we're too dangerous

For this not to end

Until I am repaired

And I waltz back again

Well, we had a good time

Running around 'neath the moon

11.30am we're back on the juice

But it's really kicking in this time

It's quicker, it's cheaper

And it's way out of line

And if you were a wheel

I've spun you a thousand times

I bought your t-shirt

Committed my crimes

When hurting myself was a tragedy

Hurting everybody else was too easy for me

But I'm glad that I danced with you

As fearlessly as I did

Cos God knows now I am scared like a kid

Of your power to clip my wings

Send me down to the bottom of things

But while I want my nights quiet

Oh, I hear sirens

And oh, why deny it?

We are to blame

So before I turn to leave you

Thanks for the good times

Together, we're too dangerous

For this not to end

Until I am repaired

And I waltz back again

But while I want my nights quiet

Oh, I hear sirens

And oh, why deny it?

We are to blame

So before I turn to leave you

Thanks for the good times

Together, we're too dangerous

For this not to end
