Where I belong

You talk a mile a minute
then you're silent as the sea
you solve all TV murders
never bark up the wrong tree
you never read a paper
but prefer to write your own
you don't believe the adverts
and you'd rather be alone

           Where you're going
            is where I'm going
            'cause where you're going
            is where I belong
            I've known all along
            that's where I belong

you don't wish upon a star
but smile at passing strangers
you've got no lucky numbers
and build your house in danger
you treat me and you tease me
with your dresses short and long
all your riddles and solutions
make me weak then make me strong

             refr.

the dog plays in the garden
the cat sleeps in the sun
you got something about you
that keeps me on the run
you found a place where you said
you could wash ten-thousand shirts
and forget the bloody war
yes forget how much it hurts

         refr.
