I'm Waking Up to Us

I'm Waking Up to Us - Belle & Sebastian

I need someone to take some joy in something I do

You need a man who is either rich or loose in a screw

You know I love you here's the irony

You're going to walk away intact

I think you never liked me anyway

You like yourself and you like men to kiss your arse

Expensive clothes please stop me there

I think I'm waking up to us

We're a disaster

You don't want to know me

Because you move in circles of the brave

Where art defines their lives

She was the one love of my life and I let her go

And if I look like death today

Then please let her know

I never wanted to do harm to her

I only wanted her to see

The beauty of the world surrounding her

But when she opened up her eyes

It's much too late

Our chance has gone

She's with a guy

Who takes the prize for everything I ever showed her

Digging all the fun

Because she's older

I fed her with a spoon

I made her mother smile

I helped the kid survive

She was the one love of my life

She showed me the road

I loved her dog her steady gaze the chapter is closed

I always wanted all the best for her

The best thing was to stay away

She grew up and she left the rest of us

And now the understanding's gone

I haven't changed how could I

I'm pretty much the same person

I cannot keep the anger hidden anymore

But lucky for you you are not around

My anger turns to pity and to love

The season has arrived

The season has arrived
