For The Girl

Well she said I know but I just can't tell
Everything you've just been saying
Lucy was there as well in the dark
And The kids in the band were playing
And No-one can hear a word,
Tell What the girl was singing
She just must've been 16 or 18
I'm just past caring

She was into the Stones when
I was into the Roses
She was breaking my bones when
I was busting their noses
She would tell me a secret
I would lose it the next day
Young love pleases you easy
Makes you sick in a bad way

And all the while the girls sang
La la la la and she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just don't miss

And she said I can't love you anymore than this

Aw she said she said oh no, no, no, no
Then again yes why don't you kill me
I said wait a minute stop right there
Sweetheart you know that don't thrill me
Said I would've been there
If you had been a little bit nicer
I was dead by Sunday
Half dead skint just trying to please her

She getting me pills when
I was into her best friend
She was chasing the thrills
And living out in the West End
she was pretty in places
I lived under her window
She said take me to London
Tell me something I don't know

And all the while the girls sang
La la la la she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just don't miss

And she said I can't love you anymore than this!

She was into the Stones when
I was into the Roses
She was breaking my bones when
I was busting their noses
She would tell me a secret
I would lose it the next day
Young love pleases you easy
Makes you sick in a bad way
And all the while the girls sang
La la la la she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just don't miss

And she said I don't like you
You can't stand me
I can't love you anymore than this
