I know too well, I know these lines, I've seen them smothered,

in sleek ridicule. A seedy smile, they think they've scored,

but I know morning comes & babes alone again, too alone again

So what can I do, with cheap honesty,

you're giving me more than I can see,

but I'm to cool to say, that I want it all my way,

get blasted by this sincerity.

I wish I had, the streets full view,

these people screaming, through their settled loves.

so I pretend, so mellowed out, too teasing,

weak enough to long for, home again, lovely home again
