Watching me like you never watch no one
Don't tell me that you didn't try and check out my bum
Cause I know that you did
Cause your friend told me that you liked it
Gave me those pearls and I thought they were ugly
Though you try to tell me that you never loved me
I know that you did
Cause you said it and you wrote it down

Dancing at discos
Eating cheese on toast
Yeah you make me merry make me very very happy
But you obviously, you didn't want to stick around

Dancing at discos
Eating cheese on toast
Yeah you make me merry make me very very happy
But you obviously, you didn't want to stick around

So I learnt from you

Do do do da do do do do do da do do do do do da do

Do do do da do do do do do da do do do do do da do

I can be alone, yeah
I can watch a sunset on my own
I can be alone, yeah
I can watch a sunset on my own
I can be alone
I can watch a sunset on my own

I can be alone, yeah
I can watch a sunset on my own
I can be alone, yeah
I can watch a sunset on my own
I can be alone
I can watch a sunset on my own

Sitting in restaurants
Thought we were so grown up
But I know now that we were not the people that we turned out to be

Chatting on the phone can't take back those hours
But I won't regret cause you can grow flowers from where dirt used to be

Dancing at discos
Eating cheese on toast
Yeah you make me merry make me very very happy
But you obviously, you didn't want to stick around

Dancing at discos
Eating cheese on toast
Yeah you make me merry make me very very happy
But you obviously, you didn't want to stick around

So I learnt from you

Do do do da do do do do do da do do do do do da do

Do do do da do do do do do da do do do do do da do

I can be alone, yeah
I can watch a sunset on my own
I can be alone, yeah
I can watch a sunset on my own
I can be alone
I can watch a sunset on my own
(Do do do da do do do do do da do do do do do da do)

I can be alone, yeah
I can watch a sunset on my own
I can be alone, yeah
I can watch a sunset on my own
I can be alone
I can watch a sunset on my own
(Do do do da do do do do do da do do do do do da do)

    General Comment:i think she's looking back on a very long and serious relationship. all the good memories and the bad. as they were hitting a rough road, she wanted to work it out because she loved him so much but he gave up. she's realizing that, although she loved him and he didn't feel the same way in the end, she's learning that she can move on too, just like him. she realizes that there are loads of other things to look forward to and enjoy in life.

    General Comment:This song is so original in so many ways.

    you never hear lyrics about someone looking so happily on a bad relationship.
    in a corny way its very inspirational.

    General Comment:I like this song, and I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find the original version of this song. I like the album ersion fine, but I don't want to listen to her sing "doo doo doo doo" for two minutes at the end of the song. Can anyone help?

    General Comment:Kate Nash clearly doesn't take herself seriously so why does everyone else have to? She's a lovely girl and makes funny and catchy songs. Clearly her lyrics and music aren't profound but I think they're great anyway, and very amusing! This song's lovely, about moving on and able to being by yourself after a heartbreak :)

    General Comment:anyway i was trying to figure out what she said when she said "you gave me those pearls and i thought they were ugly". i thought it was "pills" and that makes no sense. ahaha.

    Haha I thought the same thing! I was like birth control pills? or WHAT??? *confused* Pearls makes so much mroe sense.

    General Comment:I kind of think that she's trying to convince herself that she doesn't need him any more. (Just by how many times she repeats the "I can be alone..." lines. It could be just to be catchy but oh well.)
