Elvis Impersonators

(album: Paint My Bedroom Black - 2023)

You said this thing that really stuck with me
Back when you were in my life
On the tube everyone's ugly
Guess it's the unforgiving light

In your shoebox apartment
Are you picking out an outfit
To go out and eat gyoza in the park?
And when the umbrella's open
You should know that nothing's hopeless
And I'm sending you a foggy shower screen heart

I, I can't be without you
Oh, I, I can't be without you

And now it's 2 AM in Tokyo
There's Cherry Blossom in your hair
You always were the least happy child
I always thought that wasn't fair

And you always hid your sadness
With the smoothest sleight of hand
You were a TV talent show disappearing act
And the Elvis impersonators crowding out the elevator
Remind you of a private joke we had

I, I can't be without you
Oh, I, I can't be without you

'Cause I miss your bones, selfishly
I need you next to me, I'm spiralling
I miss your bones, selfishly
I need you next to me, I'm spiralling

I, I can't be without you
Oh, I, I can't be without you
