Billy Bragg — Only Bad Signs

He answers the phone So I know you're not alone I'll find only bad signs If you've let him answer this time When I return To find letters that you've burnt I'll find only bad signs If you have burnt his, not mine When you go out, I do not doubt That I'll find only bad signs By things that you leave here I'd rather go blind Than continue to find Only bad signs You know that you're leaving I cannot guess How much more I can take When you're with him Three's a crowd, and a heartbreak The look on your face And the long silent days I see only bad signs If we are lost in our own home The sun may rise But not in my eyes I see only bad signs And sorrow and shadows I just cannot guess How much more I can take When you're with him Three's a crowd, and a heartbreak He answers the phone So I know you're not alone I'll find only bad signs If you've let him answer this time When I return To find letters that you've burnt I'll find only bad signs If you have burnt his, not mine Only bad signs Only bad signs Only bad signs
