BELLE & SEBASTIAN - I'm Waking Up To Us lyrics

rate me

I need someone to take some joy in something I do<br>You need a man who's either rich or losing a screw<br>You know I love you here's the irony<br>You're going to walk away intact<br>I think you never liked me anyway<br>You like yourself and you like<br>Men to kiss your arse<br>Expensive clothes<br>Please stop me there<br>I think I'm waking up to us<br>We're a disaster<br>You don't want to know me<br>'cause you move in circles of the brave<br>Where art defines their lives<br><br>She was the one love of my life, and I let her go<br>And if I look like death today,<br>Then please let her know<br>I never wanted to do harm to her<br>I only wanted her to see<br>The beauty of the world surrounding her<br>But when she opened up her eyes<br>It's much too late<br>Our chance has gone<br>She's with a guy<br>Who takes the price for everything I ever showed her<br>Digging all the fun<br>Because she's older<br>I fed her with a spoon<br>I made her mother smile<br>I helped the kid survive<br><br>She was the one love of my life,<br>She showed me the road<br>I loved her dog, her steady gaze, the chapter is closed<br>I always wanted all the best for her<br>The best thing was to stay away<br>She grew up and she left the rest of us<br>And now the understanding's gone<br>I haven't changed, how could i? <br>I'm pretty much the same person<br>I cannot keep the anger hidden anymore<br>But lucky for you, you are not around<br>My anger turns to pity and to love<br>The season has arrived
