Aren't you glad you didn't stay with me
Bohemian life and instability
You went off to university
And you took your love away from me
Endless nights, lovers, friends and fun
Big-City lights, your new life had begun
And as the world turns on and on
Love is lost and love is won, laughed and cried when we were young
You went your own way. I survived
And did you ever see everything inside of me?
So now you live your life in luxury
Double glazing, turbo washing machine
And your fiancé is boring as hell
You never laugh, you're both professional
You know that film. That I'd started to write?
It's a box-office smash, I'm on the next flight
To get my award on TV tonight
Looking back, I think I've done alright
Oh, aren't you glad you didn't stay with me?
You didn't want my love,
So aren’t you glad, aren't you glad, aren't you glad?
Aren't you glad, aren't you glad,
Aren't you glad, aren't you glad |
