I reckon I'm your best dressed ex
Maybe even best at sex
Best at talking 'bout my feelings
You say words I say the meaning
Reckon I'm the one you'd call
If there was no-one left to call
I still talk about you too much
We were great until we weren't love
6 months
4 texts
About a thousand times I wondered why I left
Now I'm so damn drunk in the corner shop
See you looking at the wines just like you're lost
And I make a joke, say 'I heard that this one's something special'
Your head turns fast when you hear my voice
A familiar tone over the weekend noise
And I pass the one we used to drink, you say I'm sentimental
And then we laugh
The feeling starts again
I reckon you're the best at heart
Cause even when well fell apart
You clung tighter to the edges
And I just wanted to forget it
Darling know I healed that pain
But that don't really quite explain
How every night I've found excuses
Spend a while stood by the booze it's
Gone ten
Fine, four
I live and I relive that night the week before
So damn drunk in the corner shop
See you looking at the wines just like you're lost
And I make a joke and say I heard this one's something special
Your head turns fast when you hear my voice
A familiar tone over the weekend noise
And I pass the one we used to drink, you say I'm sentimental
And you dance in
To the radio that's barely even audible
And I, I can't think
I turn away so you don't know I'm here for you
And I hear your voice behind me
You whisper to ground and say 'I'm sorry'
So I start to turn toward you
But my action's interrupted by the sound of someone new
Through the entrance: a different accent
A deeper voice, he's asking 'who was that then?'
So I walk on and take my exit
He's buying cigarettes your favourite brand in boxes
And as he pays there's a window
I catch you looking out the doorway as the wind blows
We lock eyes but your gaze lingers
So I look down and see your hand and through your fingers
A bottle green your holding tightly
You place it on the counter so that I can see
That yellow label that I know by heart
The feeling starts again
