I Have My Coat to Keep Me Warm - Gilbert O'Sullivan

Well I’ve waited now for what three whole weeks

And she hasn’t called me up once

Had I known she liked me as much as this

I wouldn’t have prayed she’d rung

Keep your love I don’t need it

As the day begins to dawn

I have my coat to keep me warm

If it weren’t so much that we need them

Then I think that I’d do without

Now I know what’s meant when a heart is broke

And what all the fuss is about

Keep your distance I’ve told you

For at least when there’s a storm

I have my coat to keep me warm

And a coat won’t hurt you

It won’t desert you

It will not let you down come to think of it

Even if it doesn’t fit

And a coat won’t hurt you

It won’t desert you

It’s always by your side if you need it

Even if it doesn’t fit

Put your faith in someone and what do you get

Well if you’re as lucky as me

You’ll be made to look like a piece of dirt

Spelt S.H.I.T

Could be worse don’t I know it

And even if the sleeves are torn

I have my coat to keep me warm

Better of out of love than in it

Causes nothing but sorrow and pain

I’d recommend that of course you try it

Then again then again
