For Tonight

The writing on the wall Three words that you recall Every time you say you see my smile in front of anyone A picture painted like Two hands were both a-tied But you always reckoned yourself somewhat of an artist Your drawings were the best A simple architect You never let me draw a single line How blind were we not to see A simple melody Is enough to finish any perfect picture Used to the view of the ceiling cracks Many a time lay, on our backs And recite every line to your favourite film The 'sense' less of it all Three weeks without a call You know I'm not one to play you like a fool How to make amends Three words but now it's less Truth be told, I reckon we'd always fight We'd get too drunk to see alright And you'd bring up what I said three months before That I just can't recall Used to say you could be in a dream when I Turn off the TV And touch your thigh 'Cause you know that I'm all ears For tonight
