if you like what i usually do you may well not like this - I do though so maybe you will after all :-)
oh and spot the Shakespeare quote

lyrics

I'm not supposed to talk to you
it's just this thing i'm going through
like in the middle of the night
I snatch my pillow squeeze it tight
I'm not supposed to call your phone
but is it right to eat alone?
and by the pricking of my thumbs
I cast a spell and here you come
I I I I'm not supposed to talk to you
I I I I'm not supposed to talk to you

sunshine over
August clover
are we meeting?
is this cheating?

I grow accustomed to the shame
as I am battered by the rain
you sent a text and so I came
I grow accustomed to the rain
you say 'hello'
I spill the wine
I tell a joke and look for signs
oh is there somewhere near by?
I'll brush my teeth
you bring the wine
I I I I'm not supposed to talk to you
I I I I'm not supposed to talk to you

in the middle of the night
when all the lights go dim
there's something in my brain
I see your face again
in the middle of the night
I
turn around my bed
and bash my weary head
oh
in the middle of the night

sunshine over
rocks and boulders
no more sleeping
is this cheating?

I'm not supposed to talk to you
it's just this thing i'm going through
we're really not supposed to meet
but I was brought here by my feet
and like the chamber of a gun
it's spinning underneath the sun
and as I hear the trigger click
is it begun or is this it?
I I I I'm not supposed to talk to you
I I I I'm not supposed to talk to you
I I I I'm not supposed to talk to you



but I've done it again
but I've done it again but I've done it again but I've done it again
yes I'm single again.
