It Ain't You Lyrics
I'm walking on a wire
Twisting in the wind
And something here is dying
And I could use a friend
But it ain't you
It ain't you
It ain't you
Another car crash sunrise
Is burning up my street
Above the call of sirens
Someone sings to me
But it ain't you
It ain't you
It ain't you
It ain't you
Tonight I'll walk on water
Tonight I'll leap through flame
And sing it to the corner
And still the blood in your veins
'Til something flickers in me
I feel the motion of light
And slip into the distance
And someone lips in my life
But it ain't you
It ain't you
It ain't you
It ain't you
Twisting in the wind
And something here is dying
And I could use a friend
It ain't you
It ain't you
Is burning up my street
Above the call of sirens
Someone sings to me
It ain't you
It ain't you
It ain't you
Tonight I'll leap through flame
And sing it to the corner
And still the blood in your veins
'Til something flickers in me
I feel the motion of light
And slip into the distance
And someone lips in my life
It ain't you
It ain't you
It ain't you

Tom mentioned live that there are three ways to break up with a girl friend. I can't quite remember them but they both ended up badly (like having your burned clothes thrown out on the lawn!!) so the third way was to write that song and sing it to her :-D
Tragic really. He then said 'But I still love her...'!
I love this track!
