Letra de [If There's] No Hope For Us - Arab Strap

If our words were once sweethearts
Now they're ugly, violent thugs.
How did our language come to this?
We speak in grunts and sighs and shrugs
And we never used to let just one spare moment
Go to waste but now you're hardly ever here
And when you are
You're bored and chaste
So when did you decide that I was vile
I've tried and tried to talk,
But talking's never been your style
You said we can still be friends
But we both know that we won't
And your mates all laugh and smile as if they know something I don't
And every night a taxi softly sneaks you up our street
You used to say you'd broke your phone
Now you don't care if you're discreet
So why won't you just tell me who was there?
There's a buzz about you now
There's something funny in the air
If there's no hope for us
Then there's no hope for anyone
What chance can they have,
If even you and me can't have fun?
Was it so long ago our friends said we were disgraceful?
But how could they ever know

That we could be so unfaithful?
You weren't wearing much of note
Just hold-ups and your long grey coat
The three-bar fire lit up our skin
We whispered, 'cause your mom was in
And when we went to use the phone,
And noticed that we weren't alone,
We shrugged and let the pervert
See how he could only hope to be
But that was in the haze of new romance
When we floated hand in hand right through it's vague
Deceitful trance
If there's no hope for us then
There's no hope for anyone...
That's me
Then
I'm all packed
You know I need some time to think
You just keep what you might need
I think we both might need a drink
And all the secrets that I keep
You know I keep because I care
But now there's no hope left for us so,
Darling, let's just leave it there.
