Our days were dark
_____
Our shirts were black
_____
We'd always stand in the schoolyard corner and swap
_____
deeply disappointed looks
_____
And whenever we were sad
_____
And we were sad pretty often
_____
We'd go to your place
_____
And there we'd listen to the Smiths
_____
Our nights were lonely
_____
Our hearts were heavy
_____
There was nobody who could or wanted to understand us
_____
And so we grew closer
_____
And whenever we were sad
_____
And we were sad pretty often
_____
I'd take you in my arms
_____
And then we'd listen to the Smiths
_____
Sometimes The Cure or New Order too
_____
But mostly the Smiths
