You said “what do you see down the road?
You see that jewellery store
Let’s call that a year
Do you picture me stood there?” you
waited and kissed me on the head
I didn’t answer cuz I just
Pictured him there instead

Someone tell me now is it a ridiculous thing
That I’m mourning the old days of my joker fling
When I have got a king

You put your arm round my waist
Fingers pressing play
On the memory player in my brain
But I don’t see you I’m seeing him
Holding onto me from behind
Now my heart’s feeling strange
There’s feral waves in the line

Someone tell me now is it a ridiculous thing
That I’m mourning the old days of my joker fling
When I have got a king

Days pass turns to a week
You still want more from me
I say I’ve no more to give
You say I’ve given it to him
Then I walk out on you
Though I know that it’s true
But then I see him again
And I forget about you

Went to your door in the rain
Said don’t invite me in
I’m not here to stay
Not now or ever I’ve seen that
You’re always dragging the clouds
But now that you’re not around
I can see my shadow on the ground

Someone tell me now is it a ridiculous thing
That I’m going back to my joker fling
And I have left the king

Think I’ve found the real king
And he wasn’t just a fling
