Lyric The Long Division - Elvis Costello

Lyric Song The Long Division: Did somebody try to catch your eye
And almost change your sad expression
Did somebody s hand linger too long
Must I now make my confession
But you ll never know
What suspicion is
Until you lie awake

And every night you ask yourself
yquot;What am I to doyquot;
Can it be so hard to calculate
When three goes into two
There s nothing left over

How s it gonna feel This time it s real
It s not a temporary fracture
This is what you getthe stage is set
For you and your attempted rapture

Is he gonna smile
That indulgent smile
When you come running home

And every night you ask yourself
yquot;What am I to doyquot;
Can it be so hard to calculate
When three goes into two
There s nothing left over

What am I gonna say You turn away
And you leave me here despairing
What am I going to do I look at you
You seem to be so long past caring

Did somebody say
yquot;Can we still be friendsyquot;
Only to find out now that it s a joke

So ask yourself
yquot;What am I to doyquot;
Can it be so hard to calculate
When three goes into two
There s nothing left over

Did somebody say
yquot;Can we still be friendsyquot;
Did somebody say
yquot;Can we still be friendsyquot;

Did somebody say
yquot;Can we still be friendsyquot;
Did somebody say
yquot;Can we still be friendsyquot;

Did somebody say
yquot;Can we still be friendsyquot;
Did somebody say
yquot;Can we still be friendsyquot;
