There's only one or two places she could be, especially this time of night I didn't tell her I'm in town or I'd be coming 'round, I'm steppin' into her work She greets me casually, yeah hands me a drink, I wait 'til six in the morning for her She says it's alright That ya haven't written or been here for a while [I've been here for a while] Just grab your things and come on over Stay with me at my house [stay with me] She says it's alright, yeah It's half past four, the afternoon, oh we wake up There's no phones to disturb us, lazing around, isolated from all of the fuss She smokes a couple hundred cigarettes and hands me the keys, Oh while she gets ready for work Be back at seven in the morning to let her in, that's about when she returns She says it's alright That you don't speak the language, I know that you barely try [I know you barely try] I love The Smiths and my cigarettes, like you in my bed But, I don't need you to get by [don't need you] She says it's alright, yeah I'm sure you wanted to forget about things for a while As I see, how you see, how we see, let me see She says it's alright That you're going to the states and ya won't be back for awhile [I won't be back for a while] She says, it's alright with you, it's alright without you Either way is just fine [either way you're not mine] She says it's alright [it's alright, alright] I don't expect to hear from you But you're welcome back anytime Unless I find a new friend Then this will have to end We don't need no good-byes She says it's alright She says alright It's alright |
