Truly I've found it at last
Say goodbye to uncertainty
No "Plus One" is a thing of the past
Still there's something that bothers me
Everybody I mention it to
Tilts their head in a kindly way
Notwithstanding my joy at the news
They don't believe a word I say

  But I know what I'm doing.
  We're committed and we're ready to go
  I know what I'm doing
  This is gonna be a hell of a show


No-one can tell them apart:
All the others that went before
We would make an encouraging start
Then descend into Civil War
When I look at the opposite side
All I see is an empty chair
Every time that I open my eyes
There should be someone smiling there

  chorus

It's perfectly hateful
to say he's unfaithful
Don't think I'm ungrateful,
but I don't need your advice

Honey you're fooling yourself
Seems to be the prevailing view
With an eye on that infamous shelf
I'm determined to see this through
Anybody who wants to be free
Shouldn’t dwell on the distant past
Disappointment means nothing to me
This ivory tower is built to last

  chorus
