I'll leave her a key, cos I know she'll be back late
Microwave pizza and I'll stay up and wait
For her to get home, I'll turn the TV on
Another late night, I'm at work in the morning
Coffee and a breakfast never stopped me yawning
I think I need something stronger in my tea
You've gone out again
And you've been drinking since god knows when
But I, I will not pretend
That I'm you're only friend
Take me back one last time
To the place we were born in
Raise a hand to the sun
It's been shining all morning
But when you look back
Cast a smile at me
The midnight walks
When you climbed out your window
Get in trouble just to talk
Can't say we weren't fun though
I wonder when it all
Started to go wrong
You've gone out again
And you've been drinking since god knows when
But I, I will not pretend
That I'm you're only friend
Don't worry when you come home
I'm just a limousine short of a chaperone
Champagne with a glass
And then I'll take you coat
I'm a romantic entrepreneur
With a penny float
Romance ain't dead
No it's having a rest
I'm not very good at it
But I'll give it my best
Come back when you're ready
I'll be waiting here
You better make it snappy
Get yourself into gear
You've gone out again
And you've been drinking since god knows when
But I, I will not pretend
That I'm you're only friend
Don't worry when you come home
I'm just a limousine short of a chaperone
Champagne with a glass and then I'll take you coat
I'm a romantic entrepreneur with a penny float
Romance ain't dead, no it's having a rest
I'm not very good at it but I'll give it my best
Come back when you're ready
I'll be waiting here
You better make it snappy
Get yourself into gear
