[00:21.906]I’ve held your hand since 1979
[00:26.326]You were in a band - still am - yeah but back then you had hair and your smile was so sublime
[00:31.576]And I chipped my teeth on every joke you cracked
[00:42.532]You used to buy me scotch - still do - yeah but now too much is never enough
[00:47.544]To take me back to that dance hall where you got thrown out 'cause they thought you were drunk -I wasn't -
[00:53.585]You couldn’t lie then and you sure as hell can’t lie to me now
[01:04.687]You stole the best years of my life
[01:08.502]I’ll give them back
[01:13.799]You got fat
[01:15.274]And you’re the thigh-high hemline I just can’t stop staring at
[01:24.131]'Cause I will wait and hope
[01:34.478]Your eyes aren’t rivers there to weep
[01:36.804]But a place for crows to rest their feet
[01:39.732]And I will wait and hope
[01:50.175]And rest my head at night content
[01:52.781]Knowing where my marbles went
[02:06.331]The flat we rented was a palace for my queen
[02:10.400]If by palace you mean that asbestos and beans from a tin, and the gin that we brewed in the bathtub
[02:15.708]She sang, ‘Do you think I’m sexy?’ and oh god I really did
[02:25.930]You’d swoon, you’d sigh, working shifts till we cried
[02:28.419]Oh, if one more guy calls me darling then I
[02:30.883]Swear to you and to god I will murder them all
[02:33.470]All the bastards applaud when I show that I’m flawed
[02:35.958]You’re not flawed darling, you’re just a little under-rehearsed
[02:46.094]And I’d get in
[02:48.385]And for some reason you’ve painted the kitchen lime green
[02:56.514]And I'd sink to the floor, what’s the point anymore
[02:58.940]And you, you’d reply with a glint in your eye
[03:00.265](And you, you’d reply with a drink in your hand)
[03:01.590]Saying ‘I don’t know, but I’m here, I’m all yours, dear heart don’t cry’
[03:04.171](Saying ‘I don’t know, but I’m here, oh dear god, dear heart don’t cry’)
[03:06.408]'Cause I will wait and hope
[03:16.590]Your eyes aren’t rivers there to weep
[03:19.038]But a place for crows to rest their feet
[03:21.581]And I will wait and hope
[03:32.046]And rest my head at night content
[03:34.763]Knowing where my marbles went
[03:59.322]I’ve loved you, for a hundred years
[04:04.078]Certainly ****ing feels like it
[04:08.275]The minute I met you, the colours of my life began to pour
[04:14.858]I’m scared of the dark
[04:18.427]And now, even though you’re mad and these memories won’t stay
[04:27.895]That's okay
[04:28.289]'Cause then I get to meet you for the first time every single day
[04:38.087]I’ll wait and hope
[04:48.012]Your eyes aren’t rivers there to weep
[04:50.616]But a place for crows to rest their feet
[04:53.107]I’ll wait and hope
[05:03.060]And rest my head at night content
[05:05.928]Knowing where my marbles went
[05:08.892]And I will wait
[05:13.589]And I will wait
[05:18.752]And I will wait
[05:23.180]And hope
[05:29.653]
