The Wave Pictures - I thought of you again lyrics

I wrote a thousand verses Each one about doctors and nurses On paper napkins in diners And wrote the titles on matchsticks Tucked them in the left breast pocket Of a tattered silk check shirt And threw the shirt away Into the shadow of a corner Of a northern Spanish bar Without bra** in the backline But shutters on the doors And twenty, thirty people In clusters on the floor Looking anywhere but at each other Between the runners of a busted wooden pier Before the beers with Tracy on the bottle And I thought of you at the airport And I was still thinking of you on the plane And when the police took my pa**port And wrote down my name - I thought of you again I was doing press-ups in the hotel lobby; The lobby with me was unimpressed I managed five, but I was barely alive When I rolled over to rest And I thought of all your illnesses And your incredible strength And I guess that it meant that I missed you And I though of all the little things that always made you tense And I wished I was able to tell you that I'd have learnt a thousand tricks to make them disappear With whispers in the ear And kisses And I though about your lips, your mouth, your smile, your laugh, your lips Your lips, your mouth, your smile, your laugh, your lips And I though of you in Sweden Like I'd been thinking of you all over Spain And when the pissed up student girls teased me With the sound of my own name - I thought of you again
