lyrics

What you Shouldn‘t

Thinking about what you shouldn‘t
How many days have you got?
Is it ten or twelve
well you couldn‘t care less
As long as it‘s no more than that.

You‘re dreaming about what you shouldn‘t
Walking out here after dark
All the hats in the world
wouldn‘t keep of the cold
from your head and your head from your heart.

And you try...

Just because some feelings ain‘t intense
Doesn‘t mean that they are gone.
And you are written on my face
Like sea-dirt on a stone.

Like a kiss of the hand,
Like a curtsey or bow
And how could you remember now?
So it seems when old age takes its toll
And all you know is all you wanna know
and that is all

Short of having happened
Shelter for a while
Settling for the second
Going out in style
Wrong in all you reckoned
Fibbing on a trial
And you try and you try and you try

And you try...

But now you are back where you started
Now you are playing the slut
You‘re thinking about what you shouldn‘t
But how many days have you got?
