Pirouettes - Tilly Valentine

All alone, crying to myself again

The neighbours must be wondering what’s going on

Going on again

I used to think that I was ok with the situation

But since you’ve gone I just keep replaying

Everything that you were saying

(Again, again, again)

They tell me to put on my make up, and get out of bed

But I don’t wanna do that, I just wanna lay here

They tell me we’ve all been through break ups, and it just takes time

But I don’t wanna hear that, I just wanna feel fine

(Pirouettes)

Now my head is spinning, and I can’t get it to stop

Now I’m feeling dizzy ‘cause my mind is doing pirouettes non stop

Now I’m feeling stupid when I toss and turn at night

So I sleep in the middle of the bed so I can sleep on both our sides

6am, I don’t wanna go to work

The same routine like clockwork

It’s been going on for far too long again

And I’m so tired of making the same old conversation

With different faces and generations

Who can’t relate to what I’m saying

(So they say)

They tell me to look on the bright side, so I look to the light

But they don’t understand the light made love go blind

Then they tell me that I should be cautious of my appetite

But I can’t help feeling nauseous when I think of the good times

(Pirouettes)

Now my head is spinning, and I can’t get it to stop

Now I’m feeling dizzy 'cause my mind is doing pirouettes non stop

Now I’m feeling stupid when I toss and turn at night

So I sleep in the middle of the bed so I can sleep on both our sides

Now my head, my head is spinning round again, and round again

I can’t get it to stop, it keeps spinning round and round and round again
