Aren t you glad you didn t stay with me
Bohemian life and instability
You went off to university
And you took your love away from me
Endless nights, lovers, friends and fun
Big-City lights, your new life had begun
*And as the world turns on and on
Love is lost and love is won,
laughed and cried when we were young
You went your own way. I survived
And did you ever see everything inside of me?*
So now you live your life in luxury
Double glazing, turbo washing machine
And your fiance is boring as hell
You never laugh, you’re both professional
You know that film. That I d started to write?
It s a box-office smash, I m on the next flight
To get my award on TV tonight
Looking back, I think I ve done alright
REEPAT**
Oh, aren t you glad you didn t stay.
Oh aren t you glad you didn t stay with me?
Oh, aren t you glad you didn t stay with me?
You didn t want my love,
So aren’t you glad, aren t you glad, aren t you glad?
Aren t you glad, aren t you glad,
Aren t you glad, aren t you glad
