[Verse 1]

Your room was square

I once noticed from there

In your bed, as you slept

Everything had its own place

And I wondered what space would I take

In the order you kept

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]

Dm7 G/D Dm7

I tried to eat like your girlfriend

G/D Dm7 Am7

Just tea in the night, I'd end up

G# G

Too hungry to sleep

Dm7 G/D Dm7 G/D Dm7

So lying awake, I would follow the aching inside

Am7

I would find

It's for you won't be mine

What is that quiet of snow in the night?

G Am G

The dark rings with white noise

As you stand and drown

A choir of mute

As they brace for the ground

[Interlude]

Well that's my ride

Hope you had a good night

You make such a good man
