we love you so much
I almost forgot to call
Before stopping home
Meant to ask if you left the doors unlocked or if the window’s closed
Hope the cat’s not broken up
Or lying on the floor
And thinking of the future that he’ll never know
Now that you mention it
I’ve been reading rules I haven’t read
And I don’t know what they’re on about
But I can’t see how we’d live without them
Without them (We love you so much)
We love, we love you so much
We love, we love you so much
The cellar’s hardly lit
Watch out or you’ll trip over it
On the shelf, be careful, or you’ll miss
It’s easy to forget to bring this
Forever left behind (We love you so much)
She'll love you, love you so much
She'll love you, love you so much
We love, we love you so much
When you go, tell everyone
That you’ll do the things you talk about
Everyone’s got enough to care about
We love, we love you so much
And the last time you see anyone
You can tell us what your book’s about
And take what you can’t live without from us
It’s no coincidence
That the mailman said you don’t exist
And I’ve been wasting language over it
Burned fifty-seven pages over this
And I know how it sounds this time
She’ll love you, love you so much
She’ll love you, love you so much
We love, we love you son
We’re proud of all that you have done
And all the things that you have won
And every time you thought about us
We love, we love you son
Even though you disappointed us
Even though you pissed all over us
Even though you’ve done nothing for us
We love, we love you son
Everyone’s all up in arms for us
Tried to stop them charging just because
But the boulder’s got away from us
We love, we love you son
When you go, you can tell everyone
That you did all that you cared about
Everyone’s got too much to care about us
On the first, let’s not forget
With your fingers tracing over it
Has the landlord even noticed it?
The bruises that he’ll never fix for us
You papered over it
I closed my eyes and felt for it
I close them when I look at it
I use them when I talk about it
