lyrics

These boots have done a lot of working today
Didn’t know where they were heading to, but I followed them anyway
Kings Cross pavements aint no five star stay
I write a million love songs, I wouldn’t dream of singing them to anybody but you
Me and my life, I guess we’re through

Sinking ships just aren’t worth sailing, they all go down in the end
You bide your time and take your chances, but gambling’s for fools my friend
I play the fool for you, until the death of me

Should I meet you on the bridge in Camden Town tonight?
I’ve got a mouth full of words you don’t want to hear but if you didn’t it wouldn’t be right
Me and my life are leaving now if it’s all the same to you
And I guess that it is ‘cause the guy you’re leaving with’s not this one that’s in love with you
Me and my life are leaving now, there’s plenty more fish in the sea
If the oceans are filled with love sick fools like me

Me and my life are leaving now, but it wasn’t my decision to make
I’ve got a couple of litres of vodka and a bottle of sleeping pills to take
Should I meet you on the bridge in Camden Town tonight
Would that make everything alright?
