The sooner you admit it I will too
New year's resolution - to kiss you like I mean it
With cheeks the colour of Rhubarb we'll be fine
Everybody's rushing around like they got a meeting
I just want to be here with a friend of mine
We decided to brave the elements of Spain
Because The Seven Year Itch was on telly again
I've been cool with you
I've been cool with you
I've been cool with you
The sooner you admit it I will too
I decided this pain was a landscape of blame
I decided to be only myself these days
I've been cool with you
I've been cool with you
I've been cool with you
The sooner you admit it I will too
Stay now
I wish that you would stay now
Stay now
You nearly went away now
Stay now
I wish that you would stay now
I wish you would stay now
You nearly went away now
Stay now
You nearly went away
Stay now
I wish you would stay now
