Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott - Since My Dearest Husband Lyrics
The candle flickers, but never burns
The planets spin, the Earth just turns
Since my dearest husband
Left my side
They probably won't, lest he returns
Since my dearest husband
Left my side
Everything I did before
Wipe the top, and clean the floor
Means so little since he
Left my side
And all the kisses that I gave
Along with all the tears
That I cried
There were questions in Parliament
Steward's inquiries
Samuel Pepys and Adrian Mole
Entered into diaries
And the minute of silence
Was faithfully observed
In all the pubs and restaurants
No beer and wine was served
When that stupid git, he went and died
When my dearest partner left my side
The postman knocks, but only once
The milkman shows me no response
Since my dearest husband
Left my side
Well, people cross me in the street
When previously, they'd stop and speak
Since my dearest husband
Left my side
Those nuisance calls nobody wants
I answer them with brisk response
When you're lonely, any
Voice will do
The message on the answer phone
The talking clock, the undertone
Maybe just like me, she's
Sad and blue
There were questions in Parliament
Steward's inquiries
Samuel Pepys and Adrian Mole
Entered into diaries
And the minute of silence
Was faithfully observed
In all the pubs and restaurants
No beer and wine was served
When that stupid git, he went and died
When my dearest partner left my side
The paper boy, he takes good aim
He knows the lonely person's game
You can't get stuck on wrong
Side of the hedge
He knows my generation
Cling onto conversation
Like billy goat clings onto
Mountain edge, edge
There were questions in Parliament
Steward's inquiries
Samuel Pepys and Adrian Mole
Entered into diaries
And the minute of silence
Was faithfully observed
In all the pubs and restaurants
No beer and wine was served
When that stupid git, he went and died
When my dearest partner left my side
