The Wombats - How I Miss Sally Bray lyrics

My hand hovers over a button of self-destruct
It won’t let me press down, oh
I wish that it would
I’ve lost something that was an
Integral part of me
She lived in a red-brick house in Halewood
She wore a hearing aid that
Screamed louder than us
I’ve lost someone that was an
Integral part of me

"Ignorance is bliss", she preached to me
But how can I ignore someone
That makes me so happy?

Oh, Sally, where’d you go?
Oh, Sally, where’d you go?
Sally, where'd you go?

It’s not impeccable wit that makes me smile
But it’s a shock to the heart
That only lasts a short while
And she had something that made
Me fall to my knees
She had no respect for the
Rules of Trivial Pursuit
And her temper had never even lit it's fuse
Her purple hair and smile were
The highlight of my holidays

Ignorance is bliss, she preached to me
But how can I ignore someone
That makes me so happy?

Oh, Sally, where’d you go?
Oh, Sally, where’d you go?
Sally, where'd you go?

How I miss, how I miss, oh, how I miss you
Sally Bray
That she taught me a night for all
The things I could have said
How I love, how I love, oh, how I love you
Sally Bray
That she taught me a night for all
The love I could have gave
How I miss, how I miss, oh, how I miss you
Sally Bray
That she taught me a night for all
The things I could have said
How I love, how I love, oh, how I love you
Sally Bray
That she taught me a night for all
The love I could have gave
How I miss, how I miss, oh, how I miss you
Sally Bray
That she taught me a night for all
The things I could have said
How I love, how I love, oh, how I love you
Sally Bray
That she taught me a night for all
The love I could have gave

Oh, Sally oh, Sally

Oh, Sally, where’d you go?
Sally, where’d you go?
Sally, where’d you go?
Sally, where’d you go?
