Nields - Happy Ever Afternoon lyrics

rate me

We meet at three<br />

I have coffee, you have tea<br />

'Cause you're such an anglophile<br />

But I'd take Paris anytime<br />

<br />

And look at me, I'm smiling<br />

And I'm not even trying<br />

<br />

And I don't have to stay<br />

I couldn't really anyway<br />

But while I'm here can we pretend I won't be leaving soon<br />

And have a happy ever after afternoon<br />

<br />

We talk of many things<br />

Of shoes and strings and engagement rings<br />

But I still don't want to say<br />

Whether I will go your way<br />

And look at me, I'm smiling<br />

And I'm not even trying<br />

<br />

And I don't have to stay<br />

I couldn't really anyway<br />

But while I'm here can we pretend I won't be leaving soon<br />

And have a happy ever after afternoon<br />

Yes, I know you need an answer soon<br />

<br />

But I'm not thinking about that now.<br />

<br />

I could sit for days<br />

Passing through this phase<br />

You'd say things to make me laugh and stay<br />

I'd never have to leave this cafe<br />

<br />

And look at me, I'm smiling<br />

And I'm not even trying<br />

<br />

And I don't have to stay<br />

I couldn't really anyway<br />

But while I'm here can we pretend I won't be leaving soon<br />

And have a happy ever after afternoon
