Damn To The Days We Took For Granted

from Nausea by Dean Batten

lyrics

Damn to the days we took for granted
Tired sights that on me landed
I used to smoke the Parlies, doll
Now I smoke the red Pall Malls
Your fingertips come touch my arm
I don't feel them anymore

You don't need me like you used to
Now I think I know what they meant by blue

Damn to the eyes we took for granted
Perfect sight seems so romantic
Keep your glasses by the bed
Stumble on the stairs and you're dead
Butterfly kisses on my arm
I don't feel them anymore

You don't need me like you used to
Now I think I know what they meant by blue

Damn to the friends we took for granted
Loneliness can be so frantic
All I need's a silent smile
To sit beside me for a while
A calloused palm to touch my arm
I don't feel it anymore

You don't need me like you used to
Now I think I know what they meant by blue

Damn to the days we took for granted
The final sight of lovers dancing
"I love you" is all I've got to say
You sweet kisses on my arm
I don't feel them anymore
I don't feel them anymore

You don't need me like you used to
Now I think I know what they meant by blue

Your sweet kisses on my arm
I can feel them once more
