Well old postcards
Are romantic when they’re intact
And old postcards
Are romantically full of fat

And the ones you have to watch
Are the ones that keep coming back
And you came back
Yes you came back

Yellow cards sit on old card
And the streets have changed
But I think I’m still the same

And it’s not what I want to hear or what I want to see
But your skin’s covered in postcards from you to me
To me

When you see me sit by myself
You’ll think that I’m waiting for someone else
But I’m wishing for somewhere else I’m
Wishing for somewhere else

Two postcards in a month or so
Well I don’t know
I just don’t know

And it’s not what I want to hear or what I want to see
But your skin’s covered in postcards from you to me
To me

You're too mean

    Are romantic when they’re intact
    And old postcards

    And the ones you have to watch

    And you came back
    Yes you came back

    Well old cards sit on old card
    And the streets have changed
