[Verse 1]

You’re never in, I called again

I've been around twice today

No friend of mine, no enemy

So who exactly are you?

When you’re nearer me now, and then

But never before did it seem so far away and hostile to me

The nerve is bared, the sense is real


[Verse 2]

There's places and houses

Spires inspire to find the time to

Times are finе, find the time

The nursеs find me in again


[Chorus]

Oh now, simpering nurses whispering verses

Spoiling our vacant ever-changing pointless situation

To stay here, or even to play here

Rather than kept in on my own


[Verse 3]

We only know what goes to show

What to and ask me why

Oh we’re in again, oh we’re all the same

Turning around, it seems so strange now

Don’t mind the unbalanced mind

It’s mine, and mine is yours to

Share with me and me is clean and…


[Chorus]

Oh now, simpering nurses whispering verses

Hold me away from you I’ll stay, but I don’t really think so

Maybe, I don’t think I care


[Bridge]

Close me slowly round and round and we’ll see

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah well, another day now


[Outro]

Holding these things in my hands

And I end up seeing everything
