Goodnight and go

~

skipping beats
blushing cheeks
I am struggling
daydreaming
bed scenes in
the corner café

and then I'm left in bits
recovering tectonic
tremblings
you get me every time

oh, why d'you have to be so cute?
it's impossible to ignore you
well, must you make me laugh so much?
it's bad enough we get along so well
say goodnight and go

follow you home
you've got your headphones on
and you're dancing
got lucky, beautiful shot
you're taking everything off
watch the curtains wide open

and you're following the same routine
flicking through the TV
relaxed and reclining
and you think you're alone

oh, why d'you have to be so cute?
it's impossible to ignore you
well, must you make me laugh so much?
it's bad enough we get along so well
say goodnight and go

one of these days
you'll miss your train
and come stay with me
(it's always say goodnight and go)
we'll have drink and
talk about things and
any excuse to stay awake with you
we could sleep here
I'd sleep there
but then the heating may be down again
(at my convenience)
we'd be good, we'd be great together

oh, why d'you have to be so cute?
it's impossible to ignore you
well, must you make me laugh so much?
it's bad enough we get along so well
say goodnight and go

oh, why's it always, always
goodnight and go?
oh, darling, not again
goodnight and go
