Last Week Me - Polly Paulusma

作词：Polly Paulusma

作曲：Polly Paulusma

If I were a time traveller

I'd climb inside my travelling ship

And take a trip to find myself

A week ago

And if myself could see me

And hear what now me had to say

I wonder how I'd phrase it all

To make me understand

Because last week me

Was a blissful bumbling idiot

Bang crash landing through my days

With nothing special on my mind

Yeah last week me

Was that carefree caring safe guy

I was happy as a little mayfly

Wasn't noticing the time

Slipping by by by

Slipping by by by

And if I were a time traveller

I'd tell myself to spend some time with you

To stroke your hair and smell you for remembrance

While I still could

But then I'd have to tell me

The horror of the days to come

That happy me just living in the moment

And lying in the sun

And last week me

Was cocooned from doom dread brooding

Bang crash landing through my days

Assuming everything's fine

Yeah last week me

Was that carefree caring safe guy

I was happy as a little mayfly

Swooping skyward in the sunshine

Oh last week me

Didn't have a code to live by

Thought you'd always be by my side

Wasn't noticing the time

Slipping by by by

Slipping by by by

Slipping by by by

If I were a time traveller

I'd write myself a cryptic song

And play it on the radio

One morning

And in that song I'd tell me

To hold you tight and never let you go

To grab my gun and climb up on my rooftop

And fire out a warning

And last week me

Might have stopped washing the dishes

Might have covered you in kisses

Before I'd wiped my hands dry

Yeah last week me

Might have said Come sit beside me

Might have emptied out the diary

Sunny day let's go outside

Oh but last week me

Was a blissful bumbling idiot

Bang crash landing through my days

With life's detritus on my mind

Yeah last week me

Didn't know your hours were counted

Took your warm fresh face for granted

Didn't stop to say goodbye

Say good-bye bye bye

Say good-bye bye bye

Say good-bye bye bye

Say good-bye
