You Should Have Listened To Al

  • She said "Don't you think we're going downhill?
    And I would hate it to be run-of-the mill
    "Oh love me or leave me but please don't deceive me
    For if you do, I'll know, believe me
    I want you to know I don't want you to go anyway
    And yes I was doing alright up until now
    I'm beginning to think you should have listened to Al

    She picked up her things and said "let's be friends
    For all the good and the bad things have their ends"
    Then she went lazily leaving me crazily
    Wandering lost, the night was hazy
    And everyone else looking sure of themselves but not me
    And yes I was doing alright up until now
    I'm beginning to think you should have listened to Al

    Oh she left me the keys and a dozen LPs
    A phone bill warning left for the morning
    And I left the dark on a seat in the park feeling very strange
    And yes I was doing alright up until now
    I'm beginning to think you should have listened to Al

    You should have listened to Al
    Oh, you should have listened to Al Writer/s: ALISTAIR IAN STEWART
