Stupid Things

Just bought some stupid things on Amazon
Then watched T.V. without the sound turned on
It's the day the Earth stood still
When you're gone

I took a drive out to our favorite bar
And asked the waiter for a French Sidecar
But the drinks don't taste the same
When you're gone

I can't take back
All the things I've done
Like a Luc Besson movie
I'm the girl on the run
The side effects
Keep me hanging on
Just can't tell heaven from hell when you're gone

The pawn shop gypsy read my tarot cards
She said I used to be so avant-garde
Inspiration fades away
When you're gone

Last September we went out
To a cabaret
My heart was breaking down
I didn't want to stay
All the actors took the stage
For a curtain call
And the one you really want was never there at all

I can't take back
All the things I've done
Like a Luc Besson movie
I'm the girl on the run
The side effects
Keep me hanging on
Just can't tell heaven from hell when you're gone

When you're gone
When you're gone

I can't take back
All the things I've done
Just can't tell heaven from hell when you're gone
