. . . From Across The Kitchen Table - The Pale Fountains

In a cheap hotel room the miraculous way you bucked up

when I said you were incredibly beautiful

remember Arthur Seaton said he won’t be beaten

look at jimmy price what with the weight of Christ

I don’t know they say maybe it’s the water across the kitchen table

and I don’t know they say maybe it’s the water

you saved my life, I fought you

you should have told me to stop

oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?

you saved my life, I fought you

you should have told me to stop

oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?

i’ve seen all your hooks, read the important books

and thought about the disabled

but the only thing between you and me is the fact you laugh when i’m unstable

but I don’t know they say maybe it’s the water across the kitchen table

and i don’t know they say maybe it’s the water

yeh, you saved my life, I fought you

you should have told me to stop

oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?

Bada ba ba… Bada ba ba… Bada ba ba… Bada ba ba…

Bada ba ba… Bada ba ba… Bada ba ba…

yeh, you saved my life, I fought you

you should have told me to stop

oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?

you saved my life, I fought you

you should have told me to stop

oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?

you saved my life, and I rold you to STOP, STOP, STOP…
