We've listened to so many records I've smoked so many f*gs There's still a bottle of wine in one of them carrier bags The world is spinning Slowly outside in Holloway The birds have started singing So can't we just stay On and off the sofa The candles nearly out Our pop star friends have all gone home Or maybe just out and about And I can feel you dreaming And I'm dreaming of you Together slowly drifting
Into the powder blue La la la la la La la la la la la Aretha Franklin playing Ann singing along, quite quietly She knows the whole song And all the backing vocals In a dreamy kind of way The birds have started singing So can't we just stay? Can't we just stay? The world is giving up And there's just me and you Together slowly drifting into the powder blue Into the powder blue.
