Darren Hanlon - Cast of Thousands lyrics

We broke up about a year ago, we split amicably of course Then I heard about your accident, you fell off a horse I took flowers to the hospital, when in turn the intern said That he'd help me find the room which held you and your broken leg Hidden by the friends and relatives, all gathered round your bed Yeh, you had a cast of thousands, of signatures And charts filled with your fluctuating temperatures You handed me a pen and poitned just below the knee I'm glad there's still a part of you, reserved for me Do you remember how we met like laughing children Or just how clean it ended In the darkened ward at night, when all blinds are decended But now I get a pang of pleasure seeing your leg suspended Shame they can't cover us in plaster and in six months all is mended But I love the smell of hospitals more than just a bit When I was young I couldn't keep my nose out of the first aid kit But when the very thing that brings you here also makes you go The top floor elevator's just got one arrow Why so many dirty looks? I'm in the kitchen with too many cooks
