Blame It On The Latency

from I Started With The Best Intentions by Goodbye Fairground

lyrics

Oh, how romantic
you’re dressed in your boxers
sitting on your bed
playing acoustic guitar
you could write the best song in the world
but she wouldn’t hear it
she only listens to songs to dance to
because she wants to dance with him
that’s what the movies are about
same old plot but still the premiere is sold out
the crowd applauds and the curtains go down

good times pass that’s what makes them so good

do you remember when you said
“I only want her to be happy”?
Well, now she is
and do you remember when you told her
“I respect you and your decisions”?
This decision is her’s
and you only make it worse

oh, how romantic
you’re watching the sunset alone
laying on the grass
you’re counting stars and planes
you could write the best poem in the world
but she wouldn’t read it
she’d send it back

there is nothing you can do.
