End Of The Affair

Disco: Sounds From The Gulf Stream [1999]

At your door, hand in hand 

Bedroom eyes, mutual fans 

Last forever 

Remember what you said 

 

At your door, ten years on 

Still the cliches roll on 

Need your freedom 

Has that to do with me? 

  

On your own, back outside 

Loneliness hurts your pride 

So you miss me 

What can I do? 

  

I’ve had no end of sad affairs 

Rollercoaster, it's going nowhere 

Am I destined to live in doubt? 

Sure we both know what this is about 

The end of the affair 

 

Coming home, something there 

Just one giveaway hair 

Read your diary 

But you don't mention me 

Tea in bed, my surprise 

But there's alien cries 

Someone lying 

Well in a way that’s me 

Funny tone,on the phone 

You’re engaged, I’m alone 

So you miss me 

What can I do? 

 

I’ve had no end of sad affairs 

Rollercoaster, it's going nowhere 

Am I destined to live in doubt? 

Sure we both know what this is about 

The end of the affair
