I saw you in the park, reading books
On “How to start a relationship”;
When you find someone new.
Nearly bit off my tongue
Trying to (all do?) coming out wrong
And disappointing you
But you go out
And you leave me mascara
Hides the shame on your face


What if the wind catches your perfume?
Close the shutters of my bedroom in case.
Would you remember me?
When you thought it would be,
More than a little fun.
You see, I don't want to be
Just a memory .
But I know I'll never be your one.

Cause the time, wasn't right,
For you and me.
In my mind
It's not quite, the way,
You thought it would be.

Caught a cab
For my broken-heart
Gave the driver, my credit card.
And said “Don't stop till the black turns to dusk.”

Oh the smoke, from your photograph
To inhale or (it ought to pass?)
But the whole thing burns to noth (nut?)
But you go out in the evenings
Mascara hides the shame on your face
What if the wind catches your perfume?
Close the shutters of my bedroom in case.

Would you remember me?
When you thought it would be,
More than just a little fun.
You see, I don't want to be
Just a memory
But I know I'll never be your one.

Cause the time, wasn't right,
For you and me.
In my mind
It's not quite, the way,
I thought it would be.

*instrumental part*

Would you remember me?
When you thought it would be,
More than just a little fun.
You see, I don't want to be
Just a memory
But I know I'll never be your one.

Cause the time, wasn't right,
For you and me.
In my mind
It's not quite, the way,
You thought it would be.
Fin.
