It's so quiet on these windswept days The city lights, the golden rays The sunlight on the subway tracks Are you mad again? If you like I'll take it back They're just your feelings I wasn't looking at her ass Oh do you mean it? It's so lonesome [unknown] If you ask me, yes I'd like to dance Just show me a glove covered hand A perfumed dress is more than I can stand And you approach me With your hollow hearted hands And you tell me... It's not civilised It's not fair to me The blues, the greys, the olive greens All take you far away from me The girls in their summer dresses say Though you don't notice They all look back at me Is this on purpose? Oh no no no Oh no no no Oh no no no I offer you this one olive branch It's not as though they're always so keen And we're both just the victims of circumstance Do you understand, do you know what I mean? Oh no no no Oh no no no Oh no no no Oh no no no I'm a husband first I'm a jobless curse I'm a faithful man With a faceless [unknown] I'll stay with you Oh please don't sigh I try to explain But you cry and cry and cry And you hate me when I ask the reason why You'll trade me a dollar for some sense But don't blame me I was only making sense Oh I'm so sorry, I was only making sense.
