The End of the Affair by Lodger Lyrics

Don’t understand
It’s 4 o’clock in the morning
Where I am
I cannot talk to you right now
But I can
If it means you’ll go away

Squeeze my hand
‘Til it cuts off
The circulation in my arm
But i’ll succumb once again
To your charm
If it means you’ll go away

Wait, don’t be the one to seal our fate
But as you’re starting a debate
I’ll leave you crying at the gate
I’ll leave you lying in
A state of disrepair
Until the end of the affair
Don’t want to chat
If you’ll just give me back
The keys to my flat
It will simply take 2 seconds
And that will ensure I’ll go away

Read my lips
The story’s over
And you must get to grips
With our future now that
We’ve lost our scripts
We’re not acting out your play

Bye bye baby
Baby goodbye

And I will leave up to you
One day you might find someone new
Someone who hasn’t got a clue
Just what a nightmare you can be
Then you can run into the sunset
If you dare
Until the end of the affair
