Separations Lyrics by Pulp

Separations - Reissue

1992

As the sun shines down on the land
So her heart is crying for love
And there is no one there, no one to hear her voice
And she will sleep alone again tonight
Now the moon is high in the sky
In her room, she calls out his name
But he is somewhere else, somewhere she cannot see
Oh, and the night is dark between them now
"My God, my God, why did he go away?"

Now the sun shines on a new town
With a smile, he gets off the train
He lights a cigarette, leans back to see the sky
Oh, and he thinks how much better off he is
Without her hanging round, let's do it

And the day is passing by him and he has nowhere to stay
At a lonely bar-room table, his mind goes back to yesterday
To the girl who's dead and buried, but her face lives in his eyes
He must forget that face forever, make the future start tonight
Forget it

But the meal he eats is dead flesh
There is cancer in his cigarettes
And the drinks won't do a thing for him
But revive some stupid memories
Then a hairstyle that reminds him
Makes him run into the night
Where the moon hangs high above him now
The same moon that she's praying on tonight
But the wind catches her words
And the moon swallows them whole

Now the moon is high in the sky
In her room, she calls out his name
The night is cold and dark and she is all alone
The bed is empty now, her body screams for love
She wants to be with him, oh, but he's so far away
Oh, and the night is dark between them now
"My God, my God, why did he go away?"
