Belle and Sebastian 08 Mayfly Lyrics

Lovesick on a sunny afternoon
You are tired of staying in
You are waiting for a sign
Mayfly, woken up when skies are clear
I don't mind you coming near
Keep me company till she comes again
You are the one who's making do
I am the one who's privy too
Because you saw him in the park
Because you saw him at the bridges with the people in the dark

Cana was the start of something big
You were there in the beginning
You were there to see him play
Mayfly, woken up when skys are blue
I dont mind the sight of you
Keep me company till she comes again
You are the one who's making do
I am the one who's privy too
Because you saw him at the celebration standing at the side
He had the moves to save the day
But you would love him anyway

Lovesick, it came back upon yourself
You are the girl left on the shelf
You are incapable of playing the fool
Longingso whats different today?
You sent the boys and girls away
You are concerned with matters lofty
But puzzled so it makes you sick
Your diarys looking like a Bible with its verses lost in time
And lost in meaning for the people who surround you
Its a crying shame
You know its a crying shame
