An Imagined Affair

A sky as black as regret Is rolling aside for the blue Impossible face to forget These feelings belong in a zoo She brings the morning She brings the morning sun So lost in the sound of her voice I don't even hear the words When she says come on get out The past will find us out Come on get out please And don't breathe a word She brings the morning She brings the morning sun But all this an imagined affair While sitting in a bar spilling in a bar I drink until the doorman is a Christmas tree And my speech is just a gas leak --- An Imagined Affair - Elbow
