It's a blue, bright blue Saturday, hey hey And the pain is starting to slip away, hey hey I'm in a backless dress on a pastel ward that's shining Think I want you still But there may be pills at work Do you really wanna know how I was dancing on the floor? I was trying to fool you when I'm crawling up that door And theres a tune at things you say that you don't do Why don't you wreck? I was feeling lonely, feeling blue Feeling like I needed you Like I'm walking up surrounded by me A&E It's a blue, bright blue Saturday, hey hey And the pain is starting to slip away, hey hey I'm in a backless dress on a pastel ward that's shining Think I want you still But there may be pills at work How did I get to accident, emergency? All I wanted was you to take me out high And I was feeling lonely, feeling blue Feeling like I needed you Like I hoped you'd call and hoped you'd see me A&E
