about

A song inspired by WH Auden

lyrics

Some say love is all you need and some say it's a hoax
Some say it's a ring of fire choking them with smoke
I asked the man in the hi-vis vest who looked as if he knew
Said it's the cause of all his problems and the solution too

Girls like their fairytales, boys like pornography
In the end we all grow up with impossible dreams

Some believe in love at first sight and some say love is blind
Some stay married 50 years and some aren't the marrying kind
If I were the marrying kind, I'd probably marry a spy
Then she wouldn't be able to tell me what her days were like

Sometimes I think I should bring my single days to a stop
And have someone by my side or under or on top

Sometimes I imagine the girl of my dreams
Someone who understands me
Are we here to be understood?
Or are we just meant to be loved?

They say follow your heart by all means,
Just don't forget your brains
Love's a rocky ravine
With countless bodies underneath

Sometimes I long for the day common-sense flies away
