Everywhere we go
Everything we do
Your mind is somewhere else
And I can’t get through to you
If I asked you now
“What is in your mind?”
Would you tell me true?
Or would you leave me behind?
I lost you somewhere down the line
I lost you in the fog
Was it when my beauty faded?
God, don’t let it be that
I think it goes much deeper
Somewhere way back
You started daydreaming:
A dream within a dream
Everywhere we go
Everything we do
Your mind is somewhere else
And I can’t get through to you
It’s like you’re drifting far away
In a deep coma
While I’m slaving in the kitchen
(A woman’s work is never done)
I’m trying to get through to you
I ask you what is wrong
But all I get are muttered words
You trivialize it all
Everywhere we go
Everything we do
Your mind is somewhere else
And I can’t get through to you
It’s like you cannot feel
My presence anymore
I’m calling out to you
Through a cold rolled steel door

Loverboy

He’s your lover boy
All dressed in black
It gets awkward here
When you come with him in tow
Askin’ how I am
With those great sad brown eyes
You’re so desperate for my forgiveness
But that’s not the way to go about it
It’s just not the way to go
He’s your lover boy
And he looks a little like you
He takes his guitar almost everywhere he goes
Singing sad, sad songs
To all my so-called friends
He said he wants to be good friends with me
But that’s not the way to go about it
It’s just not the way to go
He’s your lover now
And you’re all wrapped up in him
You can’t see my soul anymore when you look at me
You can’t see anything outside your bubble
You think he’s the king and you’re the queen
And you want my loyalty
You can’t do this to me
And expect to get away with it
It’s just not the way to go
Whoa
But that’s not the way to go about it
It’s just not the way to go
But that’s not the way to go about it
It’s just not the way to go

The Bookshop Band are doing some really interesting stuff at the moment. They are doing something very different, and they do it so well. This collection of songs really blows me away. See them live!
