|
Lying on the dining room floor |
|
Being warmed through the patio door |
|
Just waiting, waiting for my dad |
|
I found a note last night |
|
From my brother down the back of the cupboard |
|
Just saying "Dear God please, make him turn up" |
|
And eventually he does |
|
And we perhaps go to the cinema |
|
Or visit our grandparents |
|
But we're almost always home by six o'clock |
|
And the strangest thing of all |
|
The thing that felt the most wrong |
|
Is that, in their separate cars, |
|
They were both still playing the same song |
|
Last night I heard you screaming |
|
Loud voices beyond the wall |
|
Another sleepness night for me |
|
It does no good to call the police |
|
Always come home if they come at all |
