If I Knew You Well

You’re a spinning sun I’m a diving bell
We suit each other pretty well
But we have these moments I can’t explain
Like deep inside there is some stain
Oh if I knew yeah
if I knew you well
In the car at 9 at night
Your like a bird about to take flight
Pinned down by a nylon belt
I don’t think I knew how you felt
Yeah if I knew yeah
If I knew you well
When the moon is out in force
I know I’ll let you run your course
I sit here in my open wounds
Wondering if you’ll come home soon
If I knew yeah
If I knew you well

Wasting My Time

If you had told me before you had gone
That you had a sense that all of this was going wrong
If you had leant over between our favourite songs
And said ‘Honey, I don’t think they’re gonna be
Your favourites too long’
I could have been looking for someone
Instead of wasting my precious time on this song
If you had given me any kind of hint
That you were here for more like a finite stint
If you’d not let me get in so deep
Then the ramp out of this wouldn’t of seemed so steep
I could have been looking for someone
Instead of wasting my precious time on this song
I tell you what
Lets not, lets not
If I’d been honest, and said I was weak
And risked you seeing me as some kind of freak
If I hadn’t pretended to not give a shit
Maybe you would have stuck around for more than a little bit
I could have been looking for someone
Instead of wasting my precious time on this song
