Intro verse 1 I wish you'd walk in again Imagine if you just did I'd fill you in on the things you missed Oh, sleepless nights, a grown up man dressed in white Who I thought might just save your life But he couldn't, so you died Chorus I don't like it, now you're dead It's not the same when I scratch my own head I haven't got the nails for it And I know that God doesn't exist And all the palaver surrounding it But I like to think you hear me sometimes Bridge So I reached for a borrowed fleece From my dad or from Denise Always Trying to keep warm, when you're the sun verse 2 I sat with you beside your bed and Cried for things that I wish I'd said You still had your nails red And if I live past 72, I hope I'm half as cool as you ooh verse 3 I got my pen and thought that I'd write A melody and line for you tonight I think that's how I make things feel alright verse 4 Made in my room, this simple tune Will always keep me close to you The crowds will sing their voices ring And it's like you never left But I'm bereft you see I think you can tell I haven't been doing too well Outro
