Behind The Blinds
By Nigel Collyer © Nigel Collyer 2017

Oh Emily don't be hesitant
He's just a neighbour looking over the fence
Trying to be a good resident
But the way you ignore him don't make any sense.

Your Homepage keeps his dream alive
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
As he pays his bills he feels the chill
Of your icy stare at the Post Office till.

All those messages he sent her
He's crawling back on her agenda
He's packed his suitcase
The lights go down at her place
She's turning up the bass
Behind the blinds it's too late.

The camera took away your mystery
He found the pages in your history
I'm not denying he's got a disease
But he spends the whole day admiring your physique.

All those messages he sent her
He's crawling back on her agenda
He's packed his suitcase
The lights go down at her place
She's turning up the bass
Behind the blinds it's too late.

The secret that he never confesses
Touches everything that he possesses
Pictures on the wall filling his place
Every one of them a photo of her face.

All those messages he sent her
He's crawling back on her agenda
He's packed his suitcase
The lights go down at her place
She's turning up the bass
Behind the blinds it's too late
Behind the blinds it's too late.
Behind the blinds it's too late.

Behind the blinds it's too late.
Behind the blinds it's too late.
