Lloyd Cole - Writers Retreat! lyrics

rate me

When you get back from the writers retreat

I won’t be waiting

When you head out to the shack in the woods

I won’t be there

I won’t be lying beside your pool

I won’t be watching the world turn blue because

I’m already gone

You can get a beat from a broken heart

You could write the book while falling apart

You can have it all save the one you want

Going for a song

Did you have nothing to do on this fine afternoon

But to write?

But you’ve got nothing today so you crank out Another screenplay

About a writer without ideas

And her lover she pushes away when he gets too near

You can get a beat from a broken heart

You could write the book while falling apart

You can have it all save the one you want

Going for a song

Who did you meet at the writers retreat?

Where did you sleep at the writers retreat?

What did you write at the writers retreat?

You can get a beat from a broken heart

You could write the book while falling apart

You can have it all but the one that you want is

Going for a song

<br />
