| Oh well her eyes they hypnotised
|
| Like a pair of headlights
|
| And I remember how she crashed
|
| Headlong into my life
|
| So I said now close those eyes
|
| Stick a pin into this map
|
| And then she said now look around
|
| Because there’ll be no looking back
|
| Oh but I’ve been looking since that day
|
| Since the day we parted
|
| But you don’t find happiness
|
| When you’re searching for it
|
| And I might have realised
|
| I was wasting precious time
|
| But I never had the chance to change the batteries in my watch
|
| Oh and it’s a Monday night in June
|
| And I should be sleeping
|
| But it’s so damn warm inside
|
| I’m in the garden dreaming
|
| And I’ve got one chair for myself
|
| And another for my feet
|
| But I still don’t feel complete
|
| Well she calls me every day
|
| Just to touch base with me
|
| And the birds upon the wire
|
| They feel the electricity
|
| And I watch them as they fly
|
| And she lifts me up with them
|
| Until I fall for her again
|
| Oh and I’ve been working since that day
|
| Since the day I left her
|
| I’m making money watching birds
|
| But I don’t feel no richer
|
| And I should have realised
|
| I was wasting precious time
|
| But I never had the chance to change the batteries in my watch
|
| Oh and it’s a Monday night in June
|
| And I should be sleeping
|
| But it’s so damn warm inside
|
| I’m in the garden dreaming
|
| And I’ve got one chair for myself
|
| And another for my feet
|
| But I still don’t feel complete |
