Richard Thompson
Turnstile Casanova

[Verse 1]
Oh, this ain't right, crying all night
My mind's broken all to pieces
She says she will, then she says she won't
My confusion just increases

[Chorus]
And she's gone
And the world moves on
I thought I was wise
I thought I was brave
I thought I was strong

[Verse 2]
She's up and away, shares a duvet
With a turnstile Casanova
I tried to plead, she said no need
When it's over, darling, it's over

[Chorus]
And she's gone
And the world moves on
I thought I was wise
I thought I was brave
I thought I was strong
[Bridge]
Stalking each other like a pair of foxes
Who needs who, who ticks whose boxes?
Who needs the headlines, who needs the drama?
Living your life in Cinerama
But who gets to stir the stew?

[Verse 3]
She's cut and dried, dewy-eyed
For an overnight sensation
There in a flash, dash for the cash
And a tabloid reputation

[Chorus]
But she's gone
And the world moves on
I thought I was wise
I thought I was brave
I thought I was strong
