Lyrics The Delgados

The Delgados

The Actress

This is not my house

But I know you both so well

Feels like it could be

But I can hear the bell

Days with your soulmate

Clothing for the course

Dimes on a cloth plate

He wonders if she scores

Why did you buy this?

I know you dressed in red

Hardly surprising

The bed before you wed

If I forget what I saw

This time I'll find you

See the sign on the wall

Pray it won't kill you

Book a room, book it soon

Before I find you

Move aside as they slide

Leave it to those who know best

It looks so real

But I think it's just too tall

Let me try it

I'll stand here in the hall

If I forget what I saw

This time I'll find you

See the sign on the wall

Pray it won't kill you

Book a room, book it soon

Before I find you

Move aside as they slide

Leave it to those who know best

Climb the stile and relax here for awhile

Taking stock of the job you have ahead

You will find what's behind all the actions of this kind

Be it all that they're happening in my head

There's this guy who speaks and I know he knows I'm weak

Fine possessions by my side. I can't carry them; I'm fried

Oh, before I go, there's some gratitude to show

For the car, hear me out, was a star

These lights, they are hurting

And these games of names of old

Don't go confusing

The console with the board

Now I see a train station

The name I see is brain

Show me the exit now

So I can get away

If I forget what I saw

This time I'll find you

See the sign on the wall

Pray it won't kill you

Book a room, book it soon

Before I find you

Move aside as they slide

Leave it to those who know best
