lyrics

You're living quite far away from me
And God knows we saw this coming for a while
But I know I can trust you, I've given you my heart
But two voices sound so lonely when a thousand miles apart

You dress me up nicely, before I leave the house
You straighten my collar, tell me I look like a lout
But now that you're distant I don't shave my face
My clothes are all rumpled, hair all over the place

And I don't want you to stop thinking you are free
'Cause some day you'll find someone better than me
No, I don't want you to stop thinking you are free
'Cause some day you'll find someone better than me

And now I'm staring at old photographs, I can't stick them to the walls
If I tore them off, I'd tear the paint from the ceiling to the floor
Well I've crumpled up and flattened out your picture a thousand times
It's a print-off and now it's blurred from pathetic tears I've cried

And I once tried to leave you and it tore my heart in half
So I swore that I'd stay by you when times got long and tough
But now that you're distant you don't want me anymore
Our love has dried up and packed its bags, left me looking at a closed door

And I don't want you to stop thinking you are free
'Cause some day you'll find someone better than me
I don't want you to stop thinking you are free, oh 'cause
Some day you'll find someone better than me
