Lonely Daze - Kate Tempest[00:00:00]
Pete is young man[00:00:19]
Heart full of rain[00:00:21]
Eyes full of evenings[00:00:22]
Spent in a dream[00:00:23]
Grew up in a city where you master your pain[00:00:24]
Or you end up numb not feeling[00:00:26]
Becky is a young woman[00:00:29]
Heart full of earth[00:00:31]
Eyes full of mornings[00:00:32]
Spent without sleeping[00:00:33]
Grew up in a city where[00:00:34]
It's hard to be heard[00:00:35]
And nothing really has much meaning[00:00:36]
Pete had his heart broke once [00:00:39]
He never fixed it[00:00:41]
Sits there in his chest[00:00:42]
With his arms crossed screwing[00:00:43]
Becky had her heart broke twice[00:00:44]
She won't risk it again[00:00:46]
She don't wanna see her heart get ruined[00:00:47]
And now she's on her way[00:00:49]
To wash up and take the orders For spaghetti[00:00:50]
At Giuseppe's[00:00:52]
The café on the corner[00:00:53]
She did the night shift too[00:00:54]
A masseuse at the sauna[00:00:55]
She's putting herself through uni[00:00:56]
It's hard work[00:00:58]
But will it be this way forever [00:01:00]
These are lonely days[00:01:02]
What if she could be the one[00:01:04]
That makes it better [00:01:06]
He looks away can't hold her gaze[00:01:07]
But will it be this way forever [00:01:10]
These are stressful times[00:01:12]
What if he could be the one that gets her [00:01:14]
She looks away she's petrified[00:01:16]
'Now have you thought about retail '[00:01:18]
'Yes fine with me'[00:01:20]
'Oh and I can see here that you have a degree'[00:01:21]
'Yes ' says Pete 'in International Relations '[00:01:24]
'Great[00:01:26]
Let's see if Primark has space for a placement '[00:01:26]
Becky clears up from the lunch rush Crushed[00:01:29]
By the blank eyes[00:01:31]
Impolite customers thrusting[00:01:32]
Their damp fives[00:01:34]
Into her palms she thinks[00:01:35]
There ain't no harm in being civil though [00:01:36]
Is there [00:01:38]
He folds up his job form[00:01:39]
Gets up from his chair[00:01:40]
The next person sits down with a similar air[00:01:41]
Of dejection[00:01:43]
He walks out heads in the direction[00:01:44]
Of the café on the corner[00:01:46]
For a coffee and some headroom[00:01:47]
This guy comes in[00:01:49]
The first customer to close the door behind him[00:01:50]
For that alone she likes him[00:01:52]
He sits at the table by the window[00:01:53]
Reading half smiling[00:01:55]
His hair's messy and his eyes are shining[00:01:56]
Can't think what to say he just stares blankly[00:01:58]
Picks up his change fiddles with his spoon[00:02:01]
And as he leaves the café he's consumed[00:02:03]
With thoughts of her[00:02:05]
Wishing that he'd got up the guts[00:02:06]
To try and talk to her[00:02:08]
But will it be this way forever [00:02:09]
These are lonely days[00:02:11]
What if she could be the one[00:02:14]
That makes it better [00:02:15]
He looks away can't hold her gaze[00:02:16]
But will it be this way forever [00:02:19]
These are stressful times[00:02:21]
What if he could be the one that gets her [00:02:24]
She looks away she's petrified[00:02:26]
It's Becky's mate's birthday[00:02:28]
They're out for the night[00:02:29]
Now Becky's mate is the nightmare type[00:02:31]
She'll flirt with anyone[00:02:32]
Scream at the top of her voice[00:02:33]
But it's her birthday so Becky[00:02:35]
Don't really have a choice[00:02:37]
He sees her in the queue[00:02:38]
He doesn't know what to do[00:02:39]
She's more beautiful than he remembers[00:02:41]
Then she says[00:02:43]
'Alright '[00:02:43]
And he tries to say something funny[00:02:44]
But stutters[00:02:46]
And now he feels like a muppet and blushes[00:02:46]
Inside it's the usual scene[00:02:48]
They're dancing at the bar waiting to get served[00:02:50]
Becky's mate's screaming about something absurd[00:02:53]
And they're all fake laughing[00:02:55]
Even though nobody heard a word[00:02:56]
So now he's hunting around the room[00:02:58]
Staring into every booth[00:02:59]
The back of every head could be hers It's no use[00:03:00]
He stops by the bar thinking[00:03:03]
Man I'll never find her[00:03:04]
And then he realises that he's standing beside her[00:03:05]
He stands there awkward[00:03:08]
His eyes are as loud as the bass[00:03:09]
And she can recognise something in his face[00:03:11]
She scribbles down her number[00:03:13]
Lingering glance[00:03:14]
And lets herself think[00:03:15]
Maybe this could be her chance[00:03:17]
But will it be this way forever [00:03:19]
These are lonely days[00:03:21]
What if she could be the one that makes it better [00:03:23]
He looks away can't hold her gaze[00:03:26]
But will it be this way forever [00:03:28]
These are stressful times[00:03:31]
What if he could be the one that gets her [00:03:33]
She looks away she's petrified[00:03:36]
But will it be this way forever [00:03:39]
These are lonely days[00:03:41]
What if she could be the one[00:03:43]
That makes it better [00:03:44]
He looks away can't hold her gaze[00:03:45]
But will it be this way forever [00:03:48]
These are stressful times[00:03:51]
What if he could be the one that gets her [00:03:53]
She looks away she's petrified[00:03:55]
