The very last song on Duffy’s sophomore album Endlessly is written by (Aimee) Duffy and Albert Hammond. A woman is stood up at a place she was meeting someone for reconciliation.
I was stood there in the shadows of a place we used to go
Drinking cocktail after cocktail
Wondering if you'd show
My head started spinning
My mouth was feeling dry
Lost inside the music
I was trying not to cry
If they call it heartache
If they call it heartache
Why is the rest of my body aching
Why is the rest of my body shaking
Please, Mr. DJ, won't you turn the music down
Why can't you understand
I'm too hurt to dance tonight
I was sat there looking solemn
He said I stood out from the crowd
He offered me a friendly face
To wipe away my frown
But I won't talk to strangers
Their words are all the same
So I drownded inside this drinking glass
To take away the pain
If they call it heartache
If they call it heartache
Why is the rest of my body aching
Why is the rest of my body shaking
Please, Mr. DJ, won't you turn the music down
Why can't you understand
I'm too hurt to dance tonight
Please, Mr. DJ, won't you turn the music down
Why can't you understand
I'm too hurt to dance tonight
