Monday - VIRGINIA

Verse 1:

Monday’s never been a day I like very much,

But I was happy for once 'cause you were home.

We stayed in bed for hours Between sheets of kisses and touch,

We had lunch on the grass under the clouds.

Pre Chorus 1:

You put your clothes on the line and read the letters of my mind,

Which said «Love should be given but never for granted».

And now in any minute the pain would have started.

Chorus:

We hold each other’s bodies tight like sponges squeezing out the tears, saying «I can’t live without your grumpy smile never near».

And I ran my fingers down from your hair to your chin to remember every line,

sayin' «I can’t believe I won’t ever see your beautiful face again so close to

mine».

Verse 2:

We talk about the things that are broken between us,

But what about love, all the love that went past

We might not be in the same place in life and in time,

We might use different words, but we will always rhyme.

Pre Chorus 2:

You said you’ll miss my hands intertwined with yours but see,

Now I’m only intercepting arms of friends and strangers to comfort me.

Chorus:

We hold each other’s bodies tight like sponges squeezing out the tears, saying «I can’t live without your grumpy smile never near».

And I ran my fingers down from your hair to your chin to remember every line,

sayin' «I can’t believe I won’t ever see your beautiful face again so close to

mine».

Verse 3:

My mind travels back to the time I was unwell,

With my head on your chest and your hand in my hair while you sang Chelsea

Hotel.

And all I’m left with is some hands holding, a kiss goodbye and some words.

I will always love you.

Write to me,

Virginia.
