I Don't Want to Spoil the Party
NS Rockwell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I would hate my disappointment to show
There's nothing for me here so I will disappear
If she turns up while I'm gone please let me know
I've had a drink or two and I don't care,
There's no fun in what I do if she's not there
I wonder what went wrong I've waited far too long
Though tonight she's made me sad
I still love her
If I find her I'll be glad
I still love her
I don't want to spoil the party so I'll go
I would hate my disappointment to show
There's nothing for me here so I will disappear
If she turns up while I'm gone please let me know
Though tonight she's made me sad
I still love her
If I find her I'll be glad
I still love her
I've had a drink or two and I don't care
There's no fun in what I do if she's not there
I wonder what went wrong I've waited far too long
I think I'll take a walk and look for her
