I came to this town
A weekend with my boyfriend
His final year away this time
Remember how we sneaked around the last time
Then without a sound we knew
that New Year's just around the corner somehow
I should be somebody's partner
But we know he's working late
A barman at the Union
And left me in the house
You were there
Remember your alarm clock on his bedside
And thinking we'd be heard
No-one came
Christmas seems so far behind me
We know New Year couldn't be the same
You can't face me
I'm just your flatmate's girlfriend
On Monday I'll be gone
til then I won't touch you
I won't smile, won't try
You will laugh and be the same
I won't cry
New Year's going to be the same
A weekend with my boyfriend
