Our Mutual Friend Lyrics

No matter how I try
I just can't get her out of my mind
And I when I sleep I visualize herI saw her in the pub
I met her later at the nightclub
A mutual friend introduced us
We talked about the noise
And how its hard to hear your own voiceAbove the beat and the sub-bass
We talked and talked for hours
We talked in the back of our friend's car
As we all went back to his placeOn our friend's settee
She told me that she really liked me
And I said, "Cool, the feeling's mutual"
We played old 45's
And said it's like the soundtrack to our livesAnd she said, "True, it's not unusual"
Then privately we danced
We couldn't seem to keep our balance
A drunken haze had come upon usWe sank down to the floor
And we sang a song that I can't sing anymore

And then we kissed and fell unconsciousI woke up the next day, all alone but for a headache
I stumbled out to find the bathroom
But all I found was her, wrapped around another lover
No longer then is he our mutual friend
