[Intro - Male Voice, talking with light FX]
It’s about to get real
We never expected to be here.
[Verse ]
What was it that you said to me
So many long nights ago
I can still smell the whisky on your breath
At the end of a cigarette
You never knew yourself and blamed me for it
That kind of shit luck you seemed to absorb it
Now I’m just here in my own way
Time to go on holiday
[Pre Chorus - female vocals harmonize as tempo picks up a little]
If only we could go back in time
If only there was a way to recover what’s lost
[Chorus ]
We were never made for each other
We convinced ourselves we were lovers
But I never missed you once you left
Thanks for the memories (I guess)
[Verse ]
What was it that I said to you?
So many long days ago
I can still smell the whisky on your breath
At the end of a bleeding heart
You never healed your scars and blamed me for it
That kind of shit luck, I seem to absorb it
Now I’m just here in a personal hell
Staring out the window of this hotel
[Chorus - female vocals backup stronger]
We were never made for each other
We convinced ourselves we were lovers
But I never missed you once you left
Thanks for the memories (I guess)
[Guitar Solo - several bars of guitar, a sense of sadness and memories]
[Bridge - Male and Female vocals]
Woulda been easier if you could be honest
Once upon a time I thought this was real
Too lonely to quit
You wasted my time
Washed the years away with
That whisky each night
[Chorus]
We were never made for each other
We convinced ourselves we were lovers
But I never missed you once you left
Thanks for the memories (I guess)
[Chorus ]
[Female vocals harmonize with an orchestra kicking in ]
We were never made for each other (no no)
We convinced ourselves we were lovers
But I never missed you once you left (not once)
Thanks for the memories (I guess)
