written many years ago whilst wallowing in the trenches of heart break
lyrics
My man
never was quite my man but we had something going on
it was a good thing,
I'd like to think for both of us
When you said we'd always be good good friends
it had to be good
Seemed almost a good thing
but I,
Can't find another peach
quite as ripe as you were
for you are your own kind of fruit
I suppose,
I suppose
And it smells like sex again come evening
the bedroom is a mess
sometimes found it hard to let him in,
but boy to let him out again
As I fall asleep we're breathing heavy,
tangled into one body
like a sugared pretzel,
but you're a fine peach of a man
I wake,
swallowed up in the pit of your arm and your chest
crying for the last time
oh I want you for the last time.
your words so peachy and sweet
your eyes flit to my eyes
murmur kiddo please don't cry but how will I
find another peach
quite as ripe as you were
for you are your own kind of fruit
that I know,
that i know.
And it smells like sex still when he leaves,
I'm my only friend
sometimes found it hard to let him in,
but boy to let him out again.
I've words stuck between my teeth I'm cleaning,
slowly by the sink
I wink to a fine
peach of a gal
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo.....
And I'll miss you in the evening
when we're alone and doing friend things
glorious friend things,
two forbidden fruit
know your wife will be so fucking lucky
hope she knows how good she's got it cos I do
oh I adored you
still want to travel to you
you find fine fine..
peach of a man
