For Tonight Lyrics

The writing on the wall

Three words that you recall

Every time you say you see my smile in front of anyone

A picture painted like

Two hands were both a-tied

But you always reckoned yourself somewhat of an artist

Your drawings were the best

A simple architect

You never let me draw a single line

How blind were we not to see

A simple melody

Is enough to finish any perfect picture

Used to the view of the ceiling cracks

Many a time lay, on our backs

And recite every line to your favourite film

The 'sense' less of it all

Three weeks without a call

You know I'm not one to play you like a fool

How to make amends

Three words but now it's less

Truth be told, I reckon we'd always fight

We'd get too drunk to see alright

And you'd bring up what I said three months before

That I just can't recall

Used to say you could be in a dream when I

Turn off the TV

And touch your thigh

'Cause you know that I'm all ears

For tonight
