The Long Blondes - The Couples lyrics

rate me

Falling in love is sometimes hard

Writing a love song is even harder

Better to leave that to someone else

Someone madder

But this is a song about feeling left out

And this is a song about not being ready

To do what you’ve been told to do

This is the last drink I’m ever gonna have

This is the way that its making me feel

I used to come here to have a good time

But I could feel like this at home

And the couples walk by and they give me the eye

And I can see that the girls just a little bit jealous

Well anytime you want to swap just stop me

Yes people have the nerve to tell me that they’re lonely

People have the nerve to tell me that they’re lonely

People have the nerve to tell me that they’re lonely

You’re not lonely

I am baby

So the couples walk by and they give me the eye

And it seems like the boys got a thing for me

Well my advice is not to get involved

And closing time’s now non-existant

So I could stay till judgement day

I could stay till I get bored of the couples walking by

Yes people have the nerve to tell me that they’re lonely

People have the nerve to tell me that they’re lonely

People have the nerve to tell me that they’re lonely

You’re not lonely

I am baby

Oooh ooohhh

You’re not lonely

I am baby

A million people in the cosmos tonight

Must be rare in this age of life

But none of them can hold a candle to me

And the couples walk by and they give me the eye

But that’s not what I what I walk

Around the block and never come back one day

I walk around the block and never come back one day

Yes people have the nerve to tell me that they’re lonely

People have the nerve to tell me that they’re lonely

People have the nerve to tell me that they’re lonely

You’re not lonely

I am baby

Oooh ooohhh

You’re not lonely

I am baby
