Last night I had too much to drink   Sitting in a club with so many fools   Playing to rules   Trying to impress but feeling rather empty   I had another drink   Drink - a - drink - a - drink - a - drink     What a way to spend that evening   They all turn up with their friends   Playing the game   But in the scene I should have been   Far away   Away - away - away - away - away   Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before   I open the door to an empty room   Then I forget     The telephone rings and someone speaks   She would very much like to go out to a show   So what can I do - I can't think what to say   She sees through anyway   Away - away - away - away - away    Out of the front door I go   Traffic's moving rather slow   Arriving late, there she waits   Looking very angry, as cross as she can be   Be - a - be - a - be - a - be - a - be  Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before   I open the door to an empty room   Then I forget
