Watching you walk in the pouring rain Your coat's on backwards And you're mumbling curse words to the floor And I can't help but laugh Though it only makes you angrier You say it's not funny, but you know that it is That wicked sense of humour, always slicing through the toughest parts of life And your eyes as kind as when I met them You want it all to go right so bad You don't want the world But you'd like to spin it on your finger You got the girl and the job and the house and the love But you still want it all, and you wanted it yesterday Watching you sleep in your childhood bed You were awake all night pacing holes in your head And I wanna take it all for you I watch your face frowning every day Going to war over funny love songs You got your life and your blood and your brain and my love But you still want it all, and you wanted it yesterday
