Suede - Digging A Hole lyrics

[Suede - Digging A Hole lyrics]

I've drunk too much, to belong to you
Feel so much older, but I'm only 22
She said she was an artist when
I met her on the street
She sleeps right through the afternoon and
Throws up on the sheet
She took me to a hotel where
She watched the evenings end
Cried into her coffee swearing she
Was on a mend

Two tortured souls digging a hole
When we need to cry
I wish I had your heart instead of mine
Instead of mine

I took a nightbus down to the park
I climbed over the gate and then
I ran into the dark
He said he was an artist on
His bench under a tree
He said he liked to see the stars
But not on nights like these

Two tortured souls digging a hole
When we need to cry
I wish I had your heart instead of mine
Instead of mine

I've drunk too much to belong to you
I look up all the people to
Help me make it through
Everyone is an artist
And they've all got things to say
They know the words to say it all
But just not what to say

Just as night follows day
Everything alive falls into decay
That's why I wish I had your heart
Instead of mine
Yes, I wish I had your heart instead of mine
