Wake up, wake up baby and go home.
Rub your eyes, here's a toothbrush, here's a comb.
No, I don't want this to be over
But I didn't want this to begin
There's a beautiful boy in your flat now
And maybe he's started wondering
Where you went last night
When the tears came:
Every time you fight, it's the same.
So finish your coffee baby and let's go
We'll be 10 minutes late at the office
and no-one will ever know.
You said you couldn't leave him
But I didn't ask - I never ask
He's a rising star shining in your life now
He eclipses your past
But
Where did you sleep last week
After the party?
And can you imagine the explosion
If he finds out you were with me?
I have one selfish question
In the middle of your maelstrom:
What if my heart never heals?
So wake up, wake up baby and go home.
You don't want to be working in yesterday's clothes.
