Plastic Hearts

You sauntered off and you said how’s tricks

You can’t mix drugs with your politics

But we took and talked and lost the plot

And after that everything seemed fine

In this distinct and beautiful collide

We drag each others worlds round under the tide

With intoxicated hands

Cold cold hearts

And well laid plans

Are you listening

Are you listening

As the days

Like the waves

Pile up behind you

La la la la la

Keep it on

Melt my plastic heart

And help me move on

Why can't I move on?

How do you escape

The great pails of pouring rain

Go to a foreign land or a house in Spain oh

La la la la la la oh

Oh how I'd kill to go

Erect the gutters and rib us in

Life or buildings and medicines

We all make the same mistakes

Our pitfalls pull us together

Are you listening

Are you listening

As the days

Like the waves

Pile up behind you

La la la la la

Keep it on

Melt my plastic heart

And help me move on

Kick this round our bedroom floor

Hate the daylight hours which you wont ignore

But the tide, the tide has drifted away

Are You listening

Are you listening

As the days like the waves decisively pull us under

La la la la la

You keep it all

Melt my plastic heart

And help me move on

La la la la la

Keep it on

There's friends for life and accquaintances,

There's romance from great distances,

There's been so many casualties,

But i cannot wallow over these

Oh no
