Time to Think

Hello darling I've been calling you

The batterys on the blink again

Im sitting here knee deep in peak hour traffic

and it's getting worse

don't forget to check the microwave

The dinners hot the cats been fed

The milk is off you might need to go to the store

Yes I know that all sounds boring

But I wont be home tonight

don't wait up for me

I will be staying at a girlfriends out of town

don't try to call me there

Coz Im gonna need

Some time to think some time to settle down

I guess you're sleeping as it's 4am,

The world is in a coma and

I am not used to sleeping in a single bed

and I can't get warm

Ive got this picture of the two of you

It lingers like a strange perfume

Clings around the edges of my vanity

Babe, you know it's killing me

I wont be home tonight

don't wait up for me

I'll be staying at a girlfriends out of town

No don't try to call me there

Coz, Im gonna need some time

time to think and time to settle down.

Some dog is waking up the neighbourhood

and shits me that it's half past nine

I haven't even showered and Im late again

oh how middle class

Perhaps well meet for lunch, and have a chat

and then you'll placate me

and remind me why I ever fell in love with you

maybe well even start a new

I need some time, time to think and time to settle down

I need some time, time to think and time to settle down

I wont be home tonight, don't wait up for me

I'll be staying at girlfriends out of town don't try to call me there

Time to think.
