[Instrumental]


[Verse]

I saw you again

For the first time in ages

You looked just the same

But you sounded so different

Your manner of speaking

And the tone of your voice

Were so changed


[Verse]

If I were a bird I’d have fluttered away

But as I don’t have wings

I was required to stay

In my place at the register

Ringing you up

In the most awkward way

In that stupid café


[Verse]

I saw you again

For the first time in ages

You looked just the same

But you sounded so different

Your manner of speaking

And the tone of your voice

Were so changed


[Chorus]

And I’d never seen that shirt before

And I’d never seen that scarf before

And I shouldn’t want to see you more often

But I do

And I’d never seen that hat before

And I’d never seen that bag before

And I shouldn’t want to see you more often

But I do, I do, I do, I do


[Verse]

It’s been a whole year

It’s been twelve whole months

The innumerable minutes, I counted each one

In a manner of speaking

I still really love you

And I can’t get you, can’t get you

Out of my head


[Verse]

I’ve spent all this time

In extensive reflection

And in my recollection

The things that I said

Were gratuitous in

Their emotional content

And I’m sorry If saying them scared you away


[Chorus]

I shouldn’t have acted the way that I acted

I shouldn’t have called you

I should have retracted

The things that I said

At the moment I said them

Or better yet I should’ve never been born

I should have retracted

The things that I said

At the moment I said them

I shouldn’t have called you

I shouldn’t have acted the way that I acted

I need to be punished

I need to be punished

I need to be punished

I need to be punished


[Bridge]

Every thought inside my head is suddenly exploding

Every object in my room is suddenly too dull

Everything I feel inside my heart is fully inappropriate

Every object in my room is suddenly too dull


[Refrain]

There’s only a window there

Only a window there

Only a window

Only a window (You can do it you can do it you can do it you can do it)

There’s only a window, only a window

Only a window, only a window there


[Refrain]

There’s only a window there

Only a window there

Only a window, only a window (You can do it you can do it you can do it you can do it)

There’s only a window, only a window

Only a window, only a window there


[Interlude]

Do do do do do do do do do

Do do

Do do do do do do do do do do do do

Do do do do do do do do do do

Do do

Do do do do do do do do


[Refrain]

There’s only a window there

Only a window there

Only a window, only a window (You can do it you can do it you can do it you can do it)

There’s only a window, only a window

Only a window, only a window there


[Refrain]

There’s only a window there

Only a window there

Only a window, only a window (You can do it you can do it you can do it you can do it)

There’s only a window, only a window

Only a window, only a window there


[Refrain]

There’s only a window there

Only a window there

Only a window, only a window (You can do it you can do it you can do it you can do it)

There’s only a window, only a window

Only a window, only a window there


[Outro]

I close my eyes

And in my memories

I’m drowning in your coat

I’m gathering the leaves that fall

In my memories

I’m drowning in your coat

I’m just jumping in the leaves that fall
