Red letter, go-getter
The red won't come off you
Faux leather, trendsetter
New lace in an old shoe
Old enough, enough to know better
To dress for the weather
It's all you've got
Waiting up for you
Cup of tea for you
There on the sofa
That's real love
Lone figure, sole singer
The floor fills around you
Breadwinner, bone digger
A faith in the "all new"
Old enough, enough to know better
To dress for the weather
And it's all you've got
She's waiting up for you
A cup of tea for you
There on the sofa
That's real love
And that's real enough
Holding out for you
While the company owns you
You know she adores you
And that's real enough
No one else knows the
Length that she goes to
To keep it together
And that's real enough
Now more than ever
Romance in shit weather
The ordinary glory of real love
It's ok Red letter, go-getter The red won't come off you Faux leather, trendsetter New lace in an old shoe Old enough, enough to know better To dress for the weather It's all you've got Waiting up for you Cup of tea for you There on the sofa That's real love Lone figure, sole singer The floor fills around you Breadwinner, bone digger A faith in the "all new" Old enough, enough to know better To dress for the weather And it's all you've got She's waiting up for you A cup of tea for you There on the sofa That's real love And that's real enough Holding out for you While the company owns you You know she adores you And that's real enough No one else knows the Length that she goes to To keep it together And that's real enough Now more than ever Romance in shit weather The ordinary glory of real love Explain Request ×
