Lyrics

I've got my head down in my books I've been reading all weekend But I don't learn anything Because my mind is full of emptiness I've less energy than a stick of celery And then you call me up, down in Jericho To see if I'll go for a drink or two But I don't want you to see What the lonely nights are doing to me Bit my fingers to the bone And I don't want to hear you say You let what happened anyway 'Cos you don't know anything I was a stronger man than you when I loved Delilah With her pants on fire But then she cut my hair and left me here With more inertia than a limpet on the shore When the tide falls so low I feel like letting go Though I should go to my family But I don't want you to see What the lonely nights are doing to me Bit my fingers to the bone And I don't want to hear you say You let what happened anyway 'Cos you don't know anything And I don't want to hear you say You let what happened anyway 'Cos you don't know anything
