The other evening I was drinking with my friends
D#m G# D#m G#
In no specific frame of mind
D#m G# D#m G#
Don't know exactly why I thought of her again
D#m G# D#m
And how she mixed her drinks with lime
C# Fm Gb G#
Then I found that i was talking about all the little ways she filled my time
D#m
It's not that i would want her back
G#
Of course you know it's not like that
D#m G# C#
It must have been the music or the wine

I woke up dreaming from a sleepy four a.m
D#m G# D#m G#
Don't know exactly why I did
D#m G# D#m G#
Caught up in memories of the rhythms of her sleep
D#m G# D#m
When she was next to me and glad to be
C# Fm Gb G#
And I reached across the darkness but I only touched the vacancy beside me
D#m
It's not that I would want her back
G#
She wasn't all that much in fact
D#m G# C#
I'm glad she's gone, I'm happy to be free
Gb G#
D#m G# D#m G#
You know it really wasn't such a heavy scene
D#m G# D#m G#
I've had it heavier I'm sure
D#m G# D#m G#
It's just these pictures in these signs and magazines
D#m G# D#m
Why do so many look like her?
C# Fm Gb G#
And her vision lingers over all the nights that fade and follow all her memories
D#m
But it's not that I would want her back
G#
It's just the summer night attracting
D#m G# A Cb C#
Pictures from a dream a world behind me
