No more butterflies
The summer's over
The bottle's nearly empty

It's got me thinking of her

We spoke between the lines

Like a drunken melody
We caught the words we wanted
The rest we can't remember


Like I won't let you down
But you don't need this love

You can take what you want
But don't expect too much


CHORUS

If I were you

Then I would run for cover
Cos we're no good for each other
Me and you


The words we couldn't use
The things we shouldn't say

It doesn't need to matter
We're better off this way


The unrepenting youth
That leads us all astray
We do not have to listen

It'll all be gone someday

If you can hide your heart

I'll try and let you go
We can play from the start
And noone needs to know


CHORUS 2


If I were you
Then I would run for cover
Cos we're no good for each other

Me and you

If I were true

Then I could be your lover
We'd be made for each other
Me and you


All the signs call us to make a change
But we're not ready to choose

Take our time and all this may remain
We would still be beautiful
This would still be wonderful

We could still be thinking it through

CHORUS
