Noodle Soup

(album: Squeeze - 2020)

Appear to me this feeling
Appear to me now, feeling
Appear to me for a while

I see you're looking pretty awful
I picked you up some noodle soup
Well there's an emptiness inside yourself
Who, when you're sick, takes care of you
And now you've fallen in, too

Appear to me this feeling
Appear to me now, feeling
Appear to me for a while

The summer's almost gone
The kids are having fun
Sweat-dreaming in the sun
Asleep with nothing on
I want nothing at all
I want nothing at all

I see you're looking pretty awful
Dirty dishes surrounding you
And there's that noodle hanging off your lip
I'd suck it up if I were you

Appear to me this feeling
Appear to me now, feeling
Appear to me for a while

The summer's almost gone
The kids come later on
Sweat-dreaming in the sun
Asleep with nothing on
I want nothing at all
I want nothing at all

Was it memory?
Standing in ecstasy next to me, in love
Thought I'd set you free
Because you were meant to be not with me
But oh, don't go taking me at my word
