By the Monument

[Verse 1] You said you'd like to see me again And then it all unravelled I heard that you were seeing someone Not such an insignificant other It seems my moves were far too swift In life some things are worth the effort [Pre-Chorus] I touched the place where your hair had been I buttoned the shirt that you left 'round mine [Chorus] Defacing pictures of famous people on the train Standing by the monument just waiting for the rain [Verse 2] In my wallet with your photobooth smile And I wearing my waterproof jacket Posterity has hold of us now Am I just waiting for the last chapter? We sleep tonight in separate towns At dusk, we see our disparate futures [Pre-Chorus] I tore a sock to bind up your golden hair We found a hotel bar to sustain our last night… in vain [Chorus] Defacing pictures of famous people on the train Standing by the monument just waiting for the rain I'm just passing my time with you on my mind I'm just passing my time [Bridge] No more late night calls Where teardrops fall No more late night calls Where teardrops fall Teardrops fall [Chorus] Standing by the monument just waiting for the rain I'm just passing my time with you on my mind I'm just wasting my precious time [Outro] I'm just wasting my time with you on my mind
