All phones are off the hook
All heads are buried in the night
All taking the stands and walking the planks for free
Trying to remember how to believe
It's never
The story they want, and it's a shame
To have to disappoint you
Blind faith
Is not the same as complacency
And you disappoint me
A streak across the sky
And across your face
Red white red white red... white fingers
Clinging on swinging on to a conker on a string
What a useless thing
It's never
The story they want, and it's a shame
To have to disappoint you
Blind faith
Is not the same as complacency
And you disappoint me
You act, you act
Like this happens all the time
Well not to me it don't, no not to me it don't
Go back, go back:
A kiss - was that what you wanted?
Well not from me you don't
No not from me you don't
It's never
The story they want, and it's a shame
To have to disappoint you
Blind faith
Is not the same as complacency
And you disappoint me
You disappoint me
You disappoint me
You disappoint me
You disappoint me
