The Pale Fountains — . . . From Across The Kitchen Table lyrics

Lyrics

In a cheap hotel room, the miraculous way you bucked up
When I said you were incredibly beautiful
Remember Arthur Seaton said he won’t be beaten
Look at Jimmy Price, what with the weight of Christ
I don’t know when they say maybe it’s the water across the kitchen table
And I don’t know when they say maybe it’s the water, yeah
You saved my life, I fought you
You should have told me to stop
Oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
You saved my life, I fought you
You should have told me to stop
Oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
I’ve seen all your hooks, read the important books
And thought about the disabled
But the only thing between you and me
Is the fact you laugh when I’m unstable
Well, I don’t know when they say maybe it’s the water across the kitchen table
And I don’t know when they say maybe it’s the water, yeah
You saved my life, I fought you
You should have told me to stop
Oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
In a cheap hotel room, the miraculous way you bucked up
When I said you were incredibly beautiful
Remember Arthur Seaton said he won’t be beaten
Look at Jimmy Price, what with the weight of Christ
I don’t know when they say maybe it’s the water across the kitchen table
And I don’t know when they say maybe it’s the water, yeah
Yeah, you saved my life, I fought you
You should have told me to stop
Oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
You saved my life, I fought you
You should have told me to stop
Oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
You saved my life and I told you to stop, stop, to stop, stop, stop …
