When I Kissed The Teacher

(Lily James & Jessica Keenan Wynn & Alexa Davies & Celia Imrie)

[Lily James]
Everybody screamed
When I kissed the teacher
And they must have thought they dreamed
When I kissed the teacher
All my friends at school
They had never seen the teacher blush
She looked like a fool
Nearly petrified
'Cause she was taken by surprise

[Lily James, Alexa Davies & Jessica Keenan Wynn]
When I kissed the teacher
Couldn’t quite believe her eyes
When I kissed the teacher
My whole class went wild
As I held my breath, the world stood still
But then she just smiled (smiled)
I was in the seventh heaven
When I kissed the teacher

[Lily James]
What a mad day
Ah, ah, ah
Now I see everything
In a different light
What a mad day
I was up in the air
And she taught me a lesson alright

[Lily James, Alexa Davies & Jessica Keenan Wynn]
I was in a trance
When I kissed the teacher
Suddenly I took the chance
When I kissed the teacher
Leaning over me
She was trying to explain the laws of geometry
And I couldn’t help it
I just had to kiss the teacher

[Celia Imrie & Lily James]
What a mad day
Now I see everything
In a different light
What a mad day
I was up in the air
And she taught me a lesson alright

[Lily James, Alexa Davies & Jessica Keenan Wynn]
What a crazy day
When I kissed the teacher
All my sense had flown away
When I kissed the teacher
My whole class went wild
As I held my breath
The world stood still
But then she just smiled
I was in the seventh heaven
When I kissed the teacher

[Lily James, Alexa Davies & Jessica Keenan Wynn]
(I wanna hug, hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher

I Wonder (Departure)

(Lily James & Jessica Keenan Wynn & Alexa Davies)


This park and these houses
Old streets I have walked
Everything dear, will it be here
One day when I am returning?
My friends will get married
Have children and homes
It sounds so nice
Well planned and wise
Never expecting surprises


[Chorus]
I wonder
It’s frightening
Leaving now
Is that the right thing?
I wonder
It scares me
But who the hell am I
If I don’t even try?
I’m not a coward
Oh no, I’ll be strong
One chance in a lifetime
Yes, I will take it
It can’t go wrong


My friends are my family
This city I love
Buses I’ve missed
Boys that I’ve kissed
Everything old and familiar


I wonder
It’s frightening
Leaving now
Is that the right thing?
I wonder
It scares me
But who the hell am I
If I don’t even try?
I’m not a coward
Oh no, I’ll be strong
One chance in a lifetime
Yes I will take it
It can’t go wrong


Yes I will take it
It can’t go wrong

One Of Us

(Amanda Seyfried and Dominic Cooper)

[Amanda Seyfried]
They pass me by
All of those great romances
It’s as if you’re robbing me
Of my rightful chances
My picture clear
Everything seemed so easy

[Amanda Seyfried]
And so I dealt you the blow
One of us had to go
Now it’s different
I want you to know...

[Amanda Seyfried & Dominic Cooper]
One of us is crying
One of us is lying in her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only waiting for a call
Sorry for himself
Feeling stupid, feeling small
Wishing he had never left at all

[Amanda Seyfried]
I saw myself
As a concealed attraction
I felt you kept me away
From the heat and the action
Just like a child
Stubborn and misconceiving

[Amanda Seyfried]
That’s how I started the show
One of us had to go
Now I’ve changed
And I want you to know

[Amanda Seyfried & Dominic Cooper]
One of us is crying
One of us is lying in her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only waiting for a call
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid, feeling small
Wishing she had never left at allv Never left at all

[Amanda Seyfried]
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead

Waterloo

(Hugh Skinner & Lily James)

[Hugh Skinner]
My, my, at Waterloo
Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny
In quite a similar way

[Hugh Skinner]
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself

[Hugh Skinner & Lily James]
Waterloo
I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo
Promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo
Couldn’t escape if I wanted to
Waterloo
Knowing my fate is to be with you
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Waterloo
Finally facing my Waterloo

[Hugh Skinner & Lily James]
My, my, I tried to hold you back
But you were stronger
Oh yeah
And now it seems my only chance is giving up the fight

[Lily James]
And how could I ever refuse?
I feel like I win when I lose

[Hugh Skinner & Lily James]
Waterloo
I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo
Promise to love you, for ever more
Waterloo
Couldn’t escape if I wanted to
Waterloo, knowing my fate
Is to be with you
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Waterloo, finally facing my Waterloo

[Hugh Skinner & Lily James]
So how could I ever refuse?
I feel like I win when I lose

[Hugh Skinner & Lily James]
Waterloo, couldn’t escape if I wanted to
Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Waterloo, finally facing my Waterloo
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you

Why Did It Have To Be Me?

(Josh Dylan & Lily James & Hugh Skinner)

[Josh Dylan]
When you were lonely, you needed a man
Someone to lean on, well I understand
It’s only natural
But why did it have to be me?
Nights can be empty, and nights can be cold
So you were looking for someone to hold
That’s only natural
But why did it have to be me?

[Lily James]
I was so lonesome, I was blue
I couldn’t help it, it had to be you and I
Always thought you knew the reason why
I only wanted a little love affair
Now I can see you are beginning to care
But baby, believe me
It’s better to forget me

[Hugh Skinner & Josh Dylan]
Men are the toys in the game that you play
When you get tired, you throw them away
That’s only natural
But why did it have to be me?
Falling in love with a woman like you
Happens so quickly, there’s nothing to do
It’s only natural
But why did it have to be me?

[Lily James & Josh Dylan]
I was so lonesome, I was blue
I couldn’t help it, it had to be you and I
Always thought you knew the reason why
I only wanted a little love affair
Now I can see you are beginning to care
But baby, believe me
It’s better to forget me

I Have A Dream

(Lily James)

I have a dream
A song to sing
To help me cope
With anything
If you see the wonder
Of a fairy tale
You can take the future
Even if you fail...

[Chorus]
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I’ll cross the stream
I have a dream


I have a dream
A fantasy
To help me through reality
And my destination
Makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness
Still another mile...


I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I’ll cross the stream
I have a dream
I’ll cross the stream…
I have a dream


I have a dream
A song to sing
To help me cope
With anything
If you see the wonder
Of a fairytale
You can take the future
Even if you fail


I believe in angels
Something good in everythin I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I’ll cross the stream, I have a dream
I’ll cross the stream, I have a dream

Kisses Of Fire

(Panos Mouzourakis)

[Chorus]
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
I’ve had my share of love affairs but they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I’m riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire


When you sleep by my side, I feel safe and I know I belong
Still it’s making me scared, that my love is so strong
Losing you is a nightmare babe, and to me it’s new
Never before did you see me begging for more


Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
I’ve had my share of love affairs but they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I’m riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire


Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
I’m riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire

Andante, Andante

(Lily James)

Take it easy with me, please
Touch me gently
Like a summer evening breeze
Take your time, make it slow
Andante, Andante
Just let the feeling grow


Make your fingers
Soft and light
Let your body
Be the velvet of the night
Touch my soul
You know how
Andante, Andante
Go slowly with me now

[Chorus]
I’m your music
(I am your music
And I am your song)
I’m your song
(I am your music
And I am your song)
Play me time and time again
And make me strong
(Play me again
'Cause you’re making me strong)
Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing
And you make me...)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh, please don’t let me down


There’s a shimmer
In your eyes
Like the feeling
Of a thousand butterflies
Please don’t talk
Go on, play
Andante, Andante
And watch me float away


I’m your music
(I am your music
And I am your song)
I’m your song
(I am your music
And I am your song)
Play me time and time again
And make me strong
(Play me again
'Cause you’re making me strong)
Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing
And you make me...)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh, please don’t let me down


Andante, Andante
Oh, please don’t let me downs

The Name Of The Game

(Lily James)

I’ve seen your eyes
Tender like mine
Only a week since we started
It seems to me
In a short time
I’m getting more open-hearted

I was an impossible case
No one ever could reach me
But I think I can see in your face
There’s a lot you can teach me
So I wanna know

What’s the name of the game?
Does it mean anything to you?
What’s the name of the game?
Can you feel it the way I do?

Tell me please
'Cause I have to know
I’m a curious child
Beginning to grow

And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What I’m trying to conceal
If I trust in you
Would you let me down?
Would you laugh at me
If I said I care for you?
Could you feel the same way too?
I wanna know
The name of the game

I have no plans
No one to see
And no one has been invited
Now I am here talking to you
No wonder I get excited

Your smile and the sound of your voice
And the way you see through me
Got a feeling you give me no choice
But it means a lot to me
So I wanna know

What’s the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Does it mean anything to you?
(Got a feeling you give me no choice, but it means a lot)
What’s the name of the game?
(I was an impossible case)
Can you feel it the way I do?


Tell me please, 'cause I have to know
I’m a curious child, beginning to grow

And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What I’m trying to conceal
If I trust in you
Would you let me down?
Would you laugh at me
If I said I care for you?
Could you feel the same way too?
I wanna know
Oh yes, I wanna know

The name of the game
(I was an impossible case)
Does it mean anything to you?
(But I think I can see in your face, and it means a lot)
What’s the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Can you feel it the way I do?
(Got a feeling you give me no choice, but it means a lot)
What’s the name of the game?

Knowing Me, Knowing You

(Jeremy Irvine & Lily James & Pierce Brosnan & Amanda Seyfried)

[Jeremy Irvine]
No more carefree laughter
Silence ever after
Walking through an empty house
Tears in my eyes
Here is where the story ends
This is goodbye

[Lily James & Jeremy Irvine]
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)
We just have to face it
This time we’re through
(This time we're through
This time we're really through
This time we're through
We're really through)
Breaking up is never easy, I know
But I have to go
(I have to go
This time, I have to go
This time, I know)
Knowing me, knowing you
It’s the best I can do

[Pierce Brosnan & Amanda Seyfried]
Memories, good days, bad days
They’ll be with me always
In these old familiar rooms
Children would play
Now there’s only emptiness
Nothing to say

[Lily James & Jeremy Irvine]
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)
We just have to face it
This time we’re through
This time we’re through
(This time we’re really through
This time we're through
We’re really through)
Breaking up is never easy, I know
But I have to go
(I have to go
This time, I have to go
This time, I know)
Knowing me, knowing you
It’s the best I can do

[Lily James & Jeremy Irvine]
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you (ah–haa)
We just have to face it
This time we’re through
This time we’re through
This time we’re really through
This time we’re through
We’re really through
Breaking up is never easy, I know
But I have to go
I have to go
This time I have to go
This time I know
Knowing me, knowing you
Is the best I can do

Angel Eyes

(Christine Baranski & Julie Walters & Amanda Seyfried)

[Julie Walters & Christine Baranski]
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaah
Ah-ha-ha
I keep thinking 'bout his angel eyes
I keep thinking, a-aaah

[Julie Walters & Christine Baranski]
Last night
I was taking a walk
Along the river
And I saw him together
With a young girl
And the look
That he gave her
Made her shiver

[Julie Walters & Christine Baranski]
'Cause he always used
To look at me that way
And I thought maybe I should walk
Right up to her and say
Ah-ha-ha
It’s a game he likes to play

[Amanda Seyfried]
Look into his angel eyes
One look and you’re hypnotized
He’ll take your heart and you must pay the price
Look into his angel eyes
You’ll think you’re in paradise
And one day you’ll find out he wears a disguise
Don’t look too deep into those angel eyes
Oh, no, no, no, no

[Julie Walters & Christine Baranski]
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaah
Ah-ha-ha
I keep thinking ‘bout his angel eyes
I keep thinking, a-aaah

[Amanda Seyfried]
Sometimes when I’m lonely I sit and think about him
And it hurts to remember all the good times
When I thought I could never live without him
And I wonder does it have to be the same?
Every time
When I see him will it bring back all the pain?
Ah-ha-ha
How can I forget that name?

[Amanda Seyfried]
Look into his angel eyes
One look and you’re hypnotized
He’ll take your heart and you must pay the price
Look into his angel eyes
You’ll think you’re in paradise
And one day you’ll find out he wears a disguise
Don’t look too deep into those angel eyes

[Amanda Seyfried]
Crazy ‘bout his angel eyes
Angel eyes
He took my heart, now I must pay the price
Look into his angel eyes
You’ll think you’re in paradise
And one day you’ll find out he wears a disguise
Don’t look too deep
Into those angel eyes
Oh, no, no, no, no

[Julie Walters & Christine Baranski]
Ah-ha-ha
I keep thinking, a-aaah
I keep thinking
About his angel eyes
Ah-ha-ha
I keep thinking, a-aaah
I keep thinking
About his angel eyes
Ah-ha-ha
A-aaah
I keep thinking about his angel eyes
Ah-ha-ha
I keep thinking, a-aaah
I keep thinking about his angel eyes
Ah-ha-ha, I keep thinking

Mamma Mia

(Lily James & Jessica Keenan Wynn & Alexa Davies)

[Lily James]
I was cheated by you
And I think you know when
So I made up my mind
It must come to an end

[Lily James]
Look at me now, will I ever learn?
I don’t know how
But I suddenly lose control
There’s a fire within my soul
Just one look
And I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything, w-o-o-o-o-h

[Lily James, Jessica Keenan Wynn & Alexa Davies]
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I’ve missed you
Yes, I’ve been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know
My my, I should not have let you go

[Lily James]
I was angry and sad
'Bout the things that you do
I can’t count all the times that I cried over you

[Lily James]
And when you go
When you slam the door
I think you know
That you won’t be away too long
You know that I’m not that strong
Just one look
And I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything, w-o-o-o-oh

[Lily James, Jessica Keenan Wynn & Alexa Davies]
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I’ve missed you
Yes, I’ve been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia
Now I really know
My, my, I should not have let you go

Dancing Queen

(Colin Firth & Stellan Skarsgard & Amanda Seyfried & Christine Baranski & Julie Walters & Pierce Brosnan)

You can dance
You can jive
Having the time of your life
Ooh, ooh, ooh
See that girl
Watch that scene
Digging the dancing queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for a place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come to look for a king

Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music’s high
With a bit of rock music, everything’s fine
You’re in the mood for a dance

And when you get the chance...

[Chorus]
You are the dancing queen
Young and sweet
Only seventeen
Dancing Queen
Feel the beat
From the tambourine
Oh yeah
You can dance
You can jive
Having the time of your life
Ooh, ooh, ooh
See that girl
Watch that scene
Digging the dancing queen

You’re a teaser
You turn ‘em on
Leave them burning
And then you’re gone
Looking out for another
Anyone will do
You’re in the mood for a dance

And when you get the chance...

You are the dancing queen
Young and sweet
Only seventeen
Dancing queen
Feel the beat
From the tambourine
Oh yeah
You can dance
You can jive
Having the time of your life
Ooh, ooh, ooh
See that girl
Watch that scene
Digging the dancing queen

Digging the dancing queen
Digging the dancing queen
Digging the dancing queen

I've Been Waiting For You

(Amanda Seyfried & Christine Baranski & Julie Walters)

[Amanda Seyfried]
I, I have known love before
I thought it would no more
Take on a new direction
Still, strange as it seems to be
It’s truly new to me
That affection

[Amanda Seyfried]
I, I don’t know what you do
You make me think that you
Will change my life forever
I, I’ll always want you near
Give up on you, my dear
I will never

[Amanda Seyfried, Julie Walters & Christine Baranski]
You thrill me, you delight me
You please me, you excite me
You’re all that
I’ve been yearning for
I love you, I adore you
I lay my life before you
I only want you more and more
And finally it seems
My lonely days are through
I’ve been waiting for you

[Amanda Seyfried]
I’ll carry you all the way
And you will choose the day
When you’re prepared to greet me
I’ll be a good mum, I swear
You’ll see how much I care
When you meet me

[Amanda Seyfried, Julie Walters & Christine Baranski]
You thrill me, you delight me
You please me, you excite me
You’re all that
I’d been yearning for
I love you, I adore you
I lay my life before you
I only want you more and more

[Amanda Seyfried]
And finally it seems
My lonely days are through
I’ve been waiting for you
Ohhhh
I’ve been waiting
For you

Fernando

(Cher & Andy Garcia)

[Cher]
Can you hear the drums, Fernando?
I remember long ago
Another starry night like this
In the firelight, Fernando
You were humming to yourself
And softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls
Were coming from afar

[Cher]
They were closer now, Fernando
Every hour, every minute
Seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid, Fernando
We were young and full of life
And none of us prepared to die
And I’m not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons
Almost made me cry

[Cher & Andy Garcia]
There was something
In the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there
For you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought
That we could lose
There’s no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

[Cher]
Now we’re old and grey, Fernando
And since many years
I haven’t seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
Do you still recall the fateful night
We crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight
For freedom in this land

[Cher & Andy Garcia]
There was something
In the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there
For you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought
That we could lose
There’s no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

[Cher & Andy Garcia]
There was something
In the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there
For you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought
That we could lose
There’s no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Yes, if had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

My Love, My Life

(Amanda Seyfried & Lily James & Meryl Streep)

[Lily James]
I’ve never felt this strong
I’m invincible, how could this go wrong?
No, here, here’s where we belong
I see a road ahead[
I never thought I would dare to tread

[Meryl Streep]
Like an image passing by
My love, my life
In the mirror of your eyes
My love, my life
I can see it all so clearly
All I love so dearly
Images passing by[
Like reflections of your mind
My love, my life
Are the words I try to find
My love, my life
But I know I don’t possess you
With all my heart, God bless you
You will be my love and my life
You’re my one and only

[Meryl Streep]
I held you close to me
Felt your heart beat
And I thought: I am free
Oh yes, and as one are we
In the now and beyond
Nothing and no one can break this bond

[Meryl Streep & Amanda Seyfried]
Like an image passing by
My love, my life[
In the mirror of your eyes
My love, my life
I can see it all so clearly
All I love so dearly
Images passing by
Like reflections of your mind
My love, my life
Are the words I try to find
My love, my life
But I know I don’t possess you
With all my heart, God bless you
You are still my love and my life
Yes I know I don’t possess you

[Meryl Streep & Amanda Seyfried]
With all my heart, God bless you
You are still my love and my life
You’re my one and only

Super Trouper

(Cher & Meryl Streep & Christine Baranski & Julie Walters & Pierce Brosnan & Colin Firth & Stellan Skarsgard & Andy Garcia & Amanda Seyfried & Dominic Cooper & Lily James & Jessica Keenan Wynn & Alexa Davies & Josh Dylan & Jeremy Irvine & Hugh Skinner)

[Cher]
I was sick and tired of everything
When I called you last night from Glasgow
All I do is eat and sleep and sing
Wishing every show was the last show

[Cher]
So imagine I was glad to hear you’re coming
Suddenly I feel all right
And it’s gonna be so different
When I’m on the stage tonight

[All]
Tonight the Super Trouper, lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
Smiling, having fun
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the Super Trouper, beams are gonna blind me
But I won’t feel blue
Like I always do
‘Cause somewhere in the crowd there’s you

[Meryl Streep]
Facing twenty thousand of your friends
How can anyone be so lonely?
Part of a success that never ends
Still I’m thinking about you only

[Meryl Streep]
There are moments when I think I’m going crazy
But it’s gonna be alright
Everything will be so different
When I’m on the stage tonight

[All]
Tonight the Super Trouper, lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
Smiling, having fun
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the Super Trouper, beams are gonna blind me
But I won’t feel blue
Like I always do
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there’s you

[Meryl Streep]
So I’ll be there when you arrive
The sight of you will prove to me I’m still alive
And when you take me in your arms
And hold me tight
I know it’s gonna mean so much tonight

[Cher & All]
Tonight the Super Trouper, lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
Smiling, having fun
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the Super Trouper, beams are gonna blind me
But I won’t feel blue
Like I always do
Cause somewhere in the crowd there’s you

[All]
Super Trouper, lights are gonna find me

The Day Before You Came

(Meryl Streep)

I must have left my house at eight because I always do
My train, I’m certain, left the station just when it was due
I must have read the morning papers going into town
And having gotten through the editorials, no doubt I must have frowned

I must have made my desk around a quarter after nine
With letters to be read, and heaps of papers waiting to be signed
I must have gone to lunch at half past twelve or so
The usual place, the usual bunch
And still on top of this I’m pretty sure it must have rained
The day before you came

I must have lit my second cigarette at half past two
And at the time I never even noticed I was blue
I must have kept on dragging through the business of the day
And without really knowing anything I hid a part of me away

At six I must have left, there’s no exception to the rule
A matter of routine, I’ve done it ever since I finished school
The train back home again
Undoubtedly I must have read the evening papers then
Oh yes, I’m sure my life was well within its usual frame
The day before you came

I must have opened my front door at eight o’clock or so
And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to go
I’m sure I had my dinner watching something on TV
There’s not a single episode of House of Cards that I have failed to see

I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten
I need a lot of sleep, and so I like to be in bed by then
I must have read a while
The latest Margaret Atwood book or something in that style
It’s funny, but I had no sense of living without aim
The day before you came

And turning out the light
I must have yawned and settled in for yet another night
And rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain
The day before you came
