Tom Chaplin, the band’s lead singer, says the song is “basically about being in love with someone and they’re not in love with you, and this was something that happened to me a few years ago”. The song was written by Tim Rice-Oxley to comfort Tom.
[Verse 1]
You think your days are uneventful
And no one ever thinks about you
She goes her own way
She goes her own way
You think your days are ordinary
And no one ever thinks about you
But we're all the same
And she can hardly breathe without you
[Chorus]
She says she has no time for you now
She says she has no time
[Verse 2]
Well, think about the lonely people
Or think about the day she found you
Or lie to yourself
And see it all dissolve around you
[Chorus]
She says she has no time for you now
She says she has no time for you now
She says she has no time
[Bridge]
Lonely people tumble downwards
And my heart opens up to you
[Chorus]
When she says she has no time for you now
She says she has no time for you now
She says she has no time
