Dry your eyes

On the train, The Streets' singing -
_________________________________________

In one single moment your whole life can turn around,
I stand there for a minute staring straight into the ground,
Lookin' to the left slightly, then looking back down.
World feels like it's caved in - proper sorry frown.

"Please let me show you where we could only just be, for us,
I can change and I can grow or we could adjust,
The wicked thing about us is we always have trust,
We can even have an open relationship, if you must."

I look at her she stares almost straight back at me,
But her eyes glaze over like she's looking straight through me.
Then her eyes must have closed for what seems an eternity,
When they open up she's looking down at her feet.

Dry your eyes mate,
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up.
There's plenty more fish in the sea.
Dry your eyes mate,
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts,
But you've got to walk away now.
It's over.

So then I move my hand up from down by my side,
It's shaking, my life is crashing before my eyes.
Turn the palm of my hand up to face the skies,
Touch the bottom of her chin and let out a sigh:

"Cause I can't imagine my life without you and me,
There's things I can't imagine doing, things I can't imagine seeing,
It weren't supposed to be easy, surely.
Please, please, I'm begging, please."

She brings her hands up towards where my hands rested,
She wraps her fingers round mine with the softness she's blessed with.
She peels away my fingers, looks at me and then gestures,
By pushing my hand away to my chest, from hers.

Dry your eyes mate,
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up.
There's plenty more fish in the sea.
Dry your eyes mate,
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts,
But you've got to walk away now.
It's over.

And I'm just standing there,
I can't say a word.
'Cause everythin's just gone.
I've got nothing.
Absolutely nothing.

Trying to pull her close out of bare desperation.
Put my arms around her trying to change what she's saying.
Pull my head level with hers so she might engage in,
Look into her eyes to make her listen again,

"I'm not gonna fucking, just fucking leave it all now.
'Cause you said it'd be forever and that was your vow.
And you're gonna let our things simply crash and fall down,
You're well out of order now, this is well out of town."

She pulls away, my arms are tightly clamped round her waist.
Gently pushes me back and she looks at me straight.
Turns around so she's now got her back to my face,
Takes one step forward, looks back, and then walks away.

Dry your eyes mate,
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up.
There's plenty more fish in the sea.
Dry your eyes mate,
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts,
But you've got to walk away now.
It's over.

I know in the past I've found it hard to say,
Telling you things, but not telling straight.
But the more I pull on your hand and say,
The more you pull away.

Dry your eyes mate,
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up.
There's plenty more fish in the sea.
Dry your eyes mate,
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts,
But you've got to walk away now.

E: There's always someone who is willing to love you, always.
V: They are not him. I don't love them.
E: But there is always another, always.
V: I feel that my world has finished.
E: No, your new world just began...with another...like always.
V: But he's the one for me, I know he's the only one for me.
E: Your eyes are dry now, darling, there's no such thing as only.
