Bell-bottomed Tear Lyrics - Beautiful South

(heaton/rotheray) 

This is the dinner prepared 

This is the dress that I made 

This is the child I brought up 

And this is the woman you laid 

This is the woman you laid 

This is the perfume I wore 

This is the hotel we stayed 

This is the way that I lay 

And this is the woman you laid 

This is the woman you laid 

We promise ourselves this is no one-night stand 

Let us draw all the curtains and strike up the band 

And I'm thrilled by gentlest touch of your hand we pretend

There's a tear, there's a tear 

Not through confusion through fear, through fear 

This is the smile that I wore 

This is the song that we played 

This is the way that I lay 

And this is the woman you laid, this is the woman you laid 

Next morning our eyes filled with sleepy regret 

A kiss and goodbye and a long cigarette 

But the pillow I lay on is cold and it's wet 

Can't pretend 

It's a tear, it's a tear 

Not through confusion, through fear, through fear 

And knowing at least that love came so near 

Just adds to the weight of this bell bottomed tear 

Roll out the red carpets and unplug the phone 

Root out the photos you've already shown 

Cos this is one night you won't sleep alone 

Just one night 

Photos 

There's a tear there's a tear 

Not through confusion through fear, through fear 

And knowing at least that love came so near 

Just adds to the weight of this bell bottomed tear 

There's a tear, there's a tear 

Not through confusion, through fear 

Not through confusion, through fear.
