Divine Comedy - Our Mutual Friend Lyrics
No matter how I try,I just can't get her out of my mindAnd I when I sleep I visualize her.I saw her in the pub,I met her later at the nightclub.A mutual friend introduced usWe talked about the noiseAnd how its hard to hear your own voiceAbove the beat and the sub-bass.We talked and talked for hours,We talked in the back of our friend's carAs we all went back to his place.On our friend's settee,she told me that she really liked meAnd I said: "Cool, the feeling's mutual."We played old 45sAnd said it's like the soundtrack to our livesAnd she said: "True, it's not unusual."Then privately we dancedWe couldn't seem to keep our balanceA drunken haze had come upon us.We sank down to the floorAnd we sang a song that I can't sing anymoreAnd then we kissed and fell unconscious.I woke up the next dayAll alone but for a headache.I stumbled out to find the bathroomBut all I found was herWrapped around another lover.No longer then is he our mutual friend.
