I grabbed hold of her wrist
and my hand closed from tip to tip
I said
"you've taken the diet too far, you have got to let it slip"
But she's not eating again,
she's not eating again,
she's not eating again,
she's not eating again.
I ask her to speak French and then I need her to translate,
I get the feeling she makes the meaning more significant,
She was always far too pretty for me to believe in a single word she said,
believe a word she said.

A good place to look to the future is when you are sat at the sea,
With the salt up to your ankles and a view of the end of the pier,
You may look down at your model's feet
and wish that you'd
just float away,
And the weather here is overcast
and the sea is the same shade of grey,
So the landscape before you looks just like the
edge of the world,
But to the left side and the right side,
either way is a crazy golf course.
The sea is a good place to think of the future.
