Nobodys perfect, and thats something that
Im sure shell know
cos trying to tell her lies from the truth at times
Is like trying to divide ice from snow
When I knew it was over, I jumped into a taxi
And said, just guess where to go
And the driver turned about and said,
Finding what you want is like
Trying to divide ice from snow

So here I sit, rolling back to bed
Knowing love is a hazard
That Id never guessed
But from this side of the morning
I couldnt care less

Nobodys helpless, although
Ive never felt this helpless before
And trying to persuade myself not to think about her
Is like trying to tell the clouds not to pour
So I put down the bottle
While in my head time is collapsing
And the currents run cold
So I can curse her memory
But dont try telling me that she was not
An emerald in a mountain of coal
Or that theres a crock of cures for cancer
At the end of the rainbow

So here I sit, rolling back to bed
Knowing love is a hazard
That Id never guessed
But from this side of the morning
I couldnt care less

And shes the kind of girl who wont forgive
But will forget
So take me frome this party, driver,
Put me back to bed
I wanted to be loved but just got laughed at instead
So if this taxi is for hire
Ill get in the back
Just to hear the friction of the tarmac and the tyres

So nobodys perfect, and thats something that
Im sure shell know
And trying to persuade myself
Not to think about her is like
Trying to tell the cockerels not to crow
Or like trying to tell the striker
Not to think about the goal

So here I sit, rolling back to bed
Knowing love is a hazard
Thatd Id never guessed
But from this side of the morning
I couldnt care less
