MUSIC FOR SALE

I wish I wasn’t where I am now
The flowers died milk turned sour
But we stay civilised while our house falls down

Let’s pretend just like we did before
Let’s make best of bad just and ignore
Love’s not just a given
Points of view too different
Opposites don’t attract anymore

I wish I could be somewhere alone
Just thinking thoughts that could grow
But peace is always shattered
Wake up let’s go

Let’s pretend just like we did before
Let’s make best of bad and just ignore
Love’s not just a given
Points of view too different
Opposites don’t attract anymore

You can shelve the crockery
We can take the kids for tea
I can mow the lawn most every Sunday
You can nurse your shattered dreams
Let’s just hope the kids don’t see
Thank god that I’m back to work on Monday

You wish that you weren’t where you are now.
When each day fuels your doubts
Smiles and shrugs politely needing to scream out

Let’s pretend just like we did before
Let’s make best of bad just and ignore
Love’s not just a given
Points of view too different
Opposites don’t attract anymore

I wish I wasn’t the where I am now
