Such a cheap game, pretending
To win a father’s blessing
When we’ve been downstairs undressing
Knowing not the time it takes…
Your thoughts start to stray, and
You see the paleness in me
You hear the lonely bars of Nassau singing
You to sleep…
I woke up next to a body
That didn’t belong to me
Had me feeling like a sinner on Sunday
Had me feeling like your father would hate me
Over hill, over dale, baby we left an ugly trail
But I always thought it’d lead somewhere we’d rest
Now on my back I obsess
The thought of you unimpressed
By the things I do
The things I say
The way you talk to me
I woke up next to a body
That didn’t belong to me
Had me feeling like a sinner on Sunday
And I see it hiding
In your sullen, sunken face
You’ve decided
Do you think you know how this ends?
Living as distant friends
No longer young and in love and
At war with the world
