[Intro: Gareth]
...Mine

[Verse 1: Gareth, Gareth & Kim]
You said, "Send me stationery to make me horny"
So I always write you letters in multicolours
Decorating envelopes for foreplay
Damn extended metaphors, I get carried away
On the back of a natural disaster
Fixed with parcel tape and with kids sticking plasters
Nothing says, "I miss you" quite like
War poetry, carved in your door with a Stanley knife

[Chorus: Gareth, Kim, Gareth & Kim]
My year in lists
Stomping on your fingers as you're clinging on to the abyss
So put on every winter coat that you owned since '98
And evеry midnight sees the countdown to another awful day
I cherish with fondnеss the day (before) I met you
I cherish with fondness the day (before) I met you
I cherish with fondness the day before I met you

[Verse 2: Gareth, Kim & Tom, Kim, Tom & Rob]
On your request, I compile a list
Of my top five resolutions for this year (One!)
I declined 'cause I decided that I (Two!)
Do not believe in the New Year anymore (Three!)
And you must confess that at times like these
Hopefulness is tantamount to hopelessness (Four!)
And I accept that it's time for a change
But not in places like this with people like these
(Five! Five! Five! Five! Five!)
[Chorus: Gareth, Kim, Gareth & Kim]
My year in lists
Stomping on your fingers as you're clinging on to the abyss
So put on every winter coat that you've owned since '98
And every midnight sees the countdown to another awful day
I cherish with fondness the day (before) I met you
I cherish with fondness the day (before) I met you
I cherish with fondness the day before I met you

[Spoken Outro: Gareth]
Thank you! Cheers, uh, hopefully this next bit should be nice. This is a song that we've never, ever played live before but it's a pretty old one and, uh, I think it's a pretty important song in the history of Los Campesinos! because it's pretty much the first proper, genuine love song we ever wrote and it's fitting that, uh, it's a nice occasion for it

This is for Ellen. It's awkward 'cause she's on stage but...
