Kirsty Maccoll - The End of a Perfect Day текст песни

(kirsty maccoll/johnny marr)

I want to tell you something

Its not a secret or anything

Youre not alone in being alone

At the end of a perfect day

And if you leave all your dependents

Then they will gain their independence

Dont make a martyr of yourself

Its just the end of a perfect day

And its never how it seems

The rain may fall on the best laid schemes

But in a written testimonial Id say

I never really knew you anyway

I want to tell you something

Now dont go crazy or anything

Just want to tell you that its over

Its the end of a perfect day

Do you want sign language?

Dont want a knuckle sandwich!

Now you can love or you can hate its just

The end of a perfect day

You cant get inside someone

So dont ask me if were close

I really couldnt tell you

But I know you wouldnt really listen anyway

Its a pain you have to bear

And its always going to be there

But if you disappeared tomorrow

Then the world would carry on without you anyway

Mind over matter it seems

Can stop you falling apart at the seams

Its a matter of honour with me

I could write out a hundred times

Put my hand on my heart and say

That I dont want to lie

Dont want to lie

Dont want to lie

About the way it is

I want to tell you something

Dont act surprised now or anything

Now you can revel in yourself cause

Its just the end of a perfect day

No its not a pretty world out there

With people dying of their own despair

But in a written testimonial youd say

You never really knew them anyway

Ill never satisfy you

Ill never even try to

I really couldnt tell, it just depends what you remember

At the end of a perfect day
