Mayfly Lyrics by Belle & Sebastian

Mayfly Lyrics

    Lovesick on a sunny afternoon
    You are tired of stopping in
    You are waiting for the time
    Mayfly, woken up when skys are clear
    I don't mind you coming near
    Keep me company till she comes again
    You are the one who's privy to
    I am the one who's making do
    Because you saw him in the park
    Because you saw him at the bridges with the people in the park

    Cana was the start of something big
    You were there in the beginning
    You were there to see him play
    Mayfly, woken up when sky's are blue
    I don't mind the sight of you
    Keep me company till she comes around
    You are the one who's privy to
    I am the one who's making do
    Because you saw him at the celebrations standing at the side
    He had the moves to save the day
    But you would love him anyway

    Lovesick, it came back upon yourself
    You are the girl left on the shelf
    You are incapable of playing the fool
    Longing...so what's different today?
    You sent the boys and girls away
    You are concerned with matters lofty
    But puzzled so it makes you sick
    Your diary's looking like a bible with it's verses lost in time
    And lost in meaning for the people who surround you
    It's a crying shame
    You know it's a crying shame
