Only Lovers Left Alive Lyrics - Someone To Drive You Home - The Long Blondes

I wouldn't bother to look if I was sure that you were happy together 

But I've seen the way she covers her chest up as if it was a national treasure 

Looks are the first weapon 

Charm is the second 

I reckon that she doesn't have much of either 

You don't need her 

It's better that you come and see about me. 

No, I won't get bored and I won't get tired 

I've already spent years at the back of the line 

So another six months won't make a difference to me now 

Soon enough we'll be the 

Only lovers, only lovers left alive 

Only lovers, only lovers left alive 

All the men came back from six years' fighting 

To the beige row of houses and the prospect of spending 

Their Saturday nights in 

From here to eternity 

And it wasn't that summer their wives didn't love them 

They had the run of the house 

And with nothing to do on a night 

One thing led to something else. 

No, I won't get bored and I won't get tired 

I've already spent years at the back of the line 

So another six months won't make a difference to me now 

Soon enough we'll be the 

Only lovers, only lovers left alive 

Only lovers, only lovers left alive 

Behind your back in the supermarket 

She's got his number and she's not afraid to use it 

I want to know, exactly what you, exactly what you intend to do about it 

Because you can't keep your eye on her all the time 

And you can't trust a word that she says any more 

Can't trust a word that she says any more 

Can't trust a word that she says any more 

No, I won't get bored and I won't get tired 

I've already spent years at the back of the line 

So another six months won't make a difference to me now 

Don't tell me you'll walk past salvation 

I have to take it anyway 

Can I get it on credit or something? 

Godspeed the day, godspeed the day when we're the 

Only lovers, only lovers left alive 

Only lovers, only lovers left alive 

Only lovers, only lovers left alive 

Only lovers, only lovers left alive 

Left alive 

Left alive
