Devastation Lyrics



And you're the only person that can make me feel alone

Just withdraw your eyes and you'll hear me start to moan

I've never felt so lonely as when you're in the next room

I hope you come back in here, come back in here soon



Had your face in my eyes all weekend now you're gone

24 long miles but my car's broken down

He won't travel 3 and he can't travel 10

So when will we ever see you again?



And I've been so devastated

I've never felt more betrayed

Got a spring in my eye and a light in my step

I wasn't made to feel this way



Got your hair in my hands and your legs running to me

Should I lick the bath or should I wait till Tuesday

I'm sorry for the silence, I'm sorry for the noise

You know I'll make it up to you with a million steak McCoy's



And how can you like me with this head and these arms?

How can this shallow freak be accused of having charm?

The way the earthquakes land when I blow my nose

How long can I be myself before you get up and go?
