about

With:
James Nicholls and Julii Sharp (Vocal harmonies)

lyrics

Hey girl won't you call me up
Well we've been acting quite strange but I don't mind
Hey sun won't you come on out
I'm used to rain but I could do with a change

Oh and if you don't
Well no harm done

And I won't let these mean old blues get to me
Bring me down and I'll stand right up
And I won't let them make a fool out of me
Well you can kick me if you want but I'll move right on

Hey girl this is where we split
Well I never quite knew how to deal with it
Maybe some day I'll think it though
Buy a second hand car and start anew

Oh but until that day
Well don't you come my way

Well every now and then things come your way
Saying look here man there comes another day
Oh and sure enough this world is spinning round
As I watch the sun rise one more time

And this is how
I cope somehow
