This Side Of The Morning

歌詞

Nobody's perfect And that's something that I'm sure she'll know 'Cos trying to tell her lies from the truth at times Is like trying to divide ice from snow And when I knew it was over I jumped into a taxi and said, "Just guess where to go" And the driver turned about and said, "Finding what you want is like Trying to divide ice from snow" So here I sit, rolling back to bed Knowing love's a hazard that I'd never guessed But from this side of the morning I couldn't care less I couldn't care less Nobody's helpless Although I've never felt this helpless before And trying to persuade myself not to think about her Is like trying to tell the clouds not to pour So I'll put down the bottle While in my head time is collapsing and the currents run cold So I'll curse her memory But don't try telling me that she was not the emerald in a mountain of coal Or there's a crock of cures for cancer at the end of the rainbow So here I sit, rolling back to bed Knowing love's a hazard that I'd never guessed But from this side of the morning I couldn't care less I couldn't care less She's the kind of girl who won't forgive but will forget So take me from this party, driver, put me back to bed I wanted to be loved but just got laughed at instead So if this taxi's for hire I'll get in the back just to feel the friction of the tarmac and the tyres So nobody's perfect And that's something that I'm sure she'll know But trying to persuade myself not to think about her is like Trying to tell the cockerels not to crow Or like trying to tell the striker not to think about the goal So here I sit, rolling back to bed Knowing love's a hazard that I'd never guessed But from this side of the morning Yeah, from this side of the morning Yeah, from this side of the morning I couldn't care less
