The Song’s Never Gonna Be The Same

[Verse 1]
50:50, 1 to 1
Leave the television on
I've heard it sing to me
It sounds like London
All parking cars and tiny men
Rolling round again

Never take your eyes off
Naked photographs: a breast I'll never have
It's calling out my name
A syllable you shout
When you need someone to doubt you

[Pre-Chorus]
But I've heard it before
I've heard it before
It sings the same, it's just another name
You'll write down on your list
It's the loveliest kind
You'll never be mine
So you'll never be alone again
Alone again

[Chorus]
Sanity's calling
He knows I'm sitting proud on the edge
And Julia's waiting
She's got her hand up in my head
But I'm nearly up in heaven
It'll keep on coming round again
The words don't change
But the song's never gonna be the same

[Verse 2]
50:50, 001
Cut the figure of your son
When he sees you without clothes on
It sounds like Liphook
All singing birds and absent men
Rolling around again
Never take your eyes off

That photograph, a touch I'll never have
Now it's crying out my name
A syllable you scream
When you need someone to dream you up

[Pre-Chorus]
But I've heard it before
I've heard it before
It sings the same, it's just another name
You'll write down on your list
It's the loveliest kind
You'll never be mine
So you'll never be alone again
Alone again

[Chorus/Outro]
Sanity's calling
He knows I'm sitting proud on the edge
Julia's waiting
She's got her hand up in my head
But I'm nearly up in heaven
It'll keep on coming round again
The words don't change
But the song's never gonna be the same

The words don't change
But the song's never gonna be the same
The words don't change
But the song's never gonna be the same
The words don't change
But the song's never gonna be the same
The words don't change
But the song's never gonna be the same
