Billy Bragg
Only Bad Signs
He answers the phone
So I know you're not alone
I'll find only bad signs
If you've let him answer this time

When I return
To find letters that you've burnt
I'll find only bad signs
If you have burnt his, not mine

When you go out, I do not doubt
That I'll find only bad signs
By things that you leave here

I'd rather go blind
Than continue to find
Only bad signs
You know that you're leaving

I cannot guess
How much more I can take
When you're with him
Three's a crowd, and a heartbreak

The look on your face
And the long silent days
I see only bad signs
If we are lost in our own home
The sun may rise
But not in my eyes
I see only bad signs
And sorrow and shadows

I just cannot guess
How much more I can take
When you're with him
Three's a crowd, and a heartbreak

He answers the phone
So I know you're not alone
I'll find only bad signs
If you've let him answer this time

When I return
To find letters that you've burnt
I'll find only bad signs
If you have burnt his, not mine

Only bad signs
Only bad signs
Only bad signs
