I've Returned - Squeeze

I’ve returned

I’ve returned

I’ve returned

Last night I played the drunken fiddle

Disabled love with a word of dribble

On and on about some jumbled subject

I said your friends were a bunch of muppets

Said your sister should’ve grown a moustache

Said you didn’t need to take off your mask

Down the staircase I made my stagger

I left you cryin' but it didn’t matter

And so I sat inside my car in wonder

A headache in my head like the thunder

I chewed my nails like a guilty victim

I couldn’t see or feel the night or nothin'

I wanted to explain, but oh so clever

Love was like it was some endeavor

Then I don’t remember who said what, when

On a stack of paper I placed my pen

And when I woke up in the mornin'

Beside you in the bed

My mouth was full of nothin'

My arms around your head

I don’t know how I got there

But I didn’t wanna check

Now back between each other

We’re salvaging our wreck

Now I’ve returned

You throw our jigsaw all over the floor

We’re at the deepest deep

I thought our love had died forever

But it just went to sleep

I’ve returned

I’ve returned

I’ve returned

I’ve returned

I’ve returned
