Back Of My Hand

(album: Ready Steady Go! - 2014)

You only call me if you're feeling blue
You tell me I don't pay attention to you
But if you only knew, just what I'm going through
You wouldn't those guys who mess around with your girl
When I call you I get stack of lies
You whup 'm out before you dry your eyes
I'm not a fruit machine, a 1960's dream
And in the 'bet you' list i bet you never seen her

You're not unreadable, you're not unbeatable
I know just what you are, don't push your luck to far
You're not untouchable, not just another girl
I'd get in touch with you, I only wish I knew that

[Chorus:]
I've got your number written on the back of my hand
I've got your number written on the back of my hand
I've got your number written on the back of my hand
I've got your number

I had a dream, I met another girl
But in the morning, she was just a kick inside
I hope I'm getting through the Interference too
My money's running out, I don't know what to say now
The operator's saying 'cut the line'
You want to call here for the very last time
You're only young at heart, but there's a time to start
Just realizing what I've got down here girl

You're not unreadable, you're not unbeatable
I know just what you are, don't push your luck to far
You're not untouchable, not just another girl
I'd get in touch with you, I only wish I knew that

[Chorus:]
I've got your number written on the back of my hand
I've got your number written on the back of my hand
I've got your number written on the back of my hand
I've got your number

Say you don't realize
Is there nothing left inside
Hey did I get you wrong?
Say where's your number gone

You only call me if you're feeling blue
You tell me I don't pay attention to you
But if you only knew, just what I'm going through
You wouldn't phone those guys who mess around with your girl

You're not unreadable, you're not unbeatable
I know just what you are, don't push your luck to far
You're not untouchable, not just another girl
I'd get in touch with you, I only wish I knew that

[Chorus:]
I've got your number written on the back of my hand
I've got your number written on the back of my hand
I've got your number written on the back of my hand
I've got your number
