lyrics

The ashtray can’t handle one more of your cigarettes
That’s what you’re staring at with nothing to say
I thought the movie was catching your eyes but
They were just gazing the doorway
Wednesday’s not
The perfect day to connect the dots
My bedroom light seems like the shadow of winter
When you go home it comes over me

Lay in my bed as long as you want
Tomorrow morning I’ve got to go to work
Head in clouds at the bookshop
Thinking how lucky I am with what I’ve got
But wednesday’s not
The perfect day to impress new
Memories on freshly painted walls of my new living room
Memories of you like ghosts
Haunt this house everytime I’m home alone

You got nothing to lose
When you got nothing to play with
And you got nothing to prove
Just don’t expect that we’re going to stay
Don’t expect that we’re going to stay just the way we were

When I brush your hair
You look like shocked
As if my hands were wires (my hands are wires)
But your eyes look like lighters (your eyes are lighters)
So I feel like I’m playing with fire (I’m playing with fire)

We were before
Before we spoke through the night, through the party, sounds
And lights and we kissed before the sunshine
Before I asked you to date me
At least a dozen times
Before like Curtis with Cash you finally said “yes”
Kate, I’ve really walked the line

Now we’re nothing more, nothing more than these nights

You won’t miss me like I do
I’m a dry field, you’re the rain
I’m a wound and you’re the pain
Now I miss the pain, miss the rain,
Seasons change but this won’t change
You won’t miss me like I do, Kate you threw it all away
