Flirt - Arab Strap

You said you didn’t mind if she turned round to sleep

But you were just half being nice, there’s no rewards to reap

And if she had stayed up, you’d still be here alone

You’d still have no idea what that means and you’d still fear the phone

The longest walk was that night in your brand new shoes

But what you can’t find now’s the thing that you can’t lose

A change of scenery, a change of mind and face

He used your clothes and hands and then fucked off without a trace

I see him now and then, but now he just looks bored

He used to flirt with everyone but prefers to be ignored

So let me dance tonight and I will be your host

Then maybe you’ll make up your mind which one loves you most

We’ll even leave the room, so you’ll be free to choose

Remember what he can’t find now’s the thing that you can’t lose

Being thoughtful’s just a curse

But a one night stand just makes it worse
