Love is an unmade bed – Nerina Pallot

Good times and bad times, the love that we shared

Now you sleep on the sofa and I don’t care.

Time was I’d reach for your hand and you’d always be there.
So what can we do but divide up our books
and our records and field all our friend’s funny looks?
You take the tv, and I’ll take a bed or a chair

I found an old photo from when we first met,

When I still wore your clothes and we’d just stay in bed

On Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays I’d skip work for you instead

Oh love is a rock not a straightjacket, love is an unmade bed x2
You and me, babe, we’re a vaudeville show,
All jazz hands and kisses nobody would know
We’re dying inside but always the life and the soul...
Like brother and sister, none closer than we
When you say you’re too tired I’m secretly relieved
But I try to see you again, to see you like the first time
And sometimes I glimpse us before we were us
Before we had bills and before we had stuff
Before we bought suitable wine for our meals
And bought records instead
Oh love is a rock not a straightjacket, love is an unmade bed x2
Do do do do do..... x2
mmmmm mmm mmm mmmmm......x2
I’ll see you again in a year maybe two
At a wedding or birthday and you’ll have moved on
And just for a moment I’ll choke
And the moment is gone
Just for a second I’ll question it,
All nostalgic and trying to hide it,
Then I’ll snuff out this thought
And the moment, the issue decided
