Solid Wood - Alison Moyet

Some days every word gets in our way

You don’t make sense of what I say

And every answer begs another question why

I didn’t want to

Maybe I could have changed the way it was

I could have made much more of us

And if I failed perhaps it wasn’t just because

I didn’t want to

Don’t take it as a sign

The stars were out of line

But heaven knows

Whoever I was then

She won’t be back again so let her go

But you I wouldn’t change

I wouldn’t change

I wouldn’t change you if I could

It’s understood

They got hardboard I got solid wood

Somehow if I am won’t to take my time

If I dig in where I should mine

It doesn’t build a case for your friends to decide

I didn’t want you

Don’t take it on yourself
