[Verse 1]
I made a mess
As you could have guessed
You know when I'm nervous
I get stupidly impressed
And worst of all
They watched you fall
You curse them when
They don't look back at you
You're a bit withdrawn
[Refrain]
And I said
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
You're a bit withdrawn
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
[Verse 2]
And if it's just a test
Then I won't confess
You know I got purpose
'Cause I'm suitably dressed
And if I came across
Just a little lost
It hurt me that
You think that much of me
I'm a bit withdrawn
[Pre-Chorus]
You drain from, you drain from
You're hiding out
[Chorus]
How could you sense that from me?
And I don't have to ask
That's what's great about that
And I'm not quite as brave as I seem
I'm just too tired to talk
So I nod along
I'm just a bit withdrawn
(Not quite, not quite with you)
I just nod along
(Not quite, not quite with you)
[Verse 3]
And once again
I'll just leave instead
You know that I'm certain
'Cause I'm virtually obsessed
So I faked a smile
It was just in time
At worst I'm not much use to anyone
And at best I'm fine
[Pre-Chorus]
The flame's gone, the flame's gone
Inside you now
Burnin' up your insides
Building up the next fire
You drain from, you drain from
You're hiding out
So I said
[Chorus]
How could you sense that from me?
You don't have to ask
That's what's great about that
And I'm not quite as brave as I seem
I'm just too tired to talk
So I nod along
I'm just a bit withdrawn
(Not quite, not quite with you)
I just nod along
(Not quite, not quite with you)
[Outro]
Ooh ooh ooh-oo-oo-ooh
Ooh ooh ooh-oo-oo-ooh
Ooh ooh ooh-oo-oo-ooh
(Not quite, not quite with you)
Ooh ooh ooh-oo-oo-ooh
(Not quite, not quite with you)
