The End Of A Perfect Day Lyrics - Singles - Maccoll Kirsty

(Kirsty MacColl/Johnny Marr) 

I want to tell you something 

It's not a secret or anything 

You're not alone in being alone 

At the end of a perfect day 

And if you leave all your dependants 

Then they will gain their independence 

Don't make a martyr of yourself 

It's just the end of a perfect day 

And it's never how it seems 

The rain may fall on the best laid schemes 

But in a written testimonial I'd say 

I never really knew you anyway 

I want to tell you something 

Now don't go crazy or anything 

Just want to tell you that it's over 

It's the end of a perfect day 

Do you want sign language? 

Don't want a knuckle sandwich! 

Now you can love or you can hate it's just 

The end of a perfect day 

You can't get inside someone 

So don't ask me if we're close 

I really couldn't tell you 

But I know you wouldn't really listen anyway 

It's a pain you have to bear 

And it's always going to be there 

But if you disappeared tomorrow 

Then the world would carry on without you anyway 

Mind over matter it seems 

Can stop you falling apart at the seams 

It's a matter of honour with me 

I could write out a hundred times 

Put my hand on my heart and say 

That I don't want to lie 

Don't want to lie 

Don't want to lie 

About the way it is 

I want to tell you something 

Don't act surprised now or anything 

Now you can revel in yourself 'cause 

It's just the end of a perfect day 

No it's not a pretty world out there 

With people dying of their own despair 

But in a written testimonial you'd say 

You never really knew them anyway 

I'll never satisfy you 

I'll never even try to 

I really couldn't tell, it just depends what you remember 

At the end of a perfect day
