lyrics

Next Time

I cut the trees down
I pulled the rope through
I reached the summit and faded away
Choke on my coffee
Get lost in the music
Wake in a haze from the previous day

I took a train ride
Arrived in earnest
But something wasn't quite right in my head
We disconnected
Awkward and nervous
We drank like retards and passed out instead

Dilute my words and mix them up
Cos they sound better that way
Three hours and down, junction was closed
My mind - it got blown away
Forgive me darling, but it isn't my day.....

It could've been so good, but it's gonna be better next time
It could've been so good, ah but it's gonna be better next time
It could've been so good, oh but it'll be better next time
I paid for my imagination - and I got ripped off again

So young and breathless
A foreign country
I was having a cynical time
It's never perfect
There's always something missing
I told myself 'things improve down the line'

Five hours and counting and I start
I'm starting to see your style
Stand round in circles while we queue
We queue up in single file
Forgive me darling, it just isn't my day.....

It could've been so good, but it's gonna be better next time
It could've been so good, ah but it's gonna be better next time
It could've been so good, oh but it'll be better next time
I paid for my imagination - and I got ripped off again
