Nana
The 1975/Musicfire.in Lyrics

I wish you'd walk in again
I long for you to walk in again

I'd fill you in on the things you missed
I would tell you everything that happened while you were gone

Oh sleepless nights, a grown up man dressed in white
I had sleepless nights, I saw a doctor dressed all in white

Who I thought might just save your life
I thought he could save you

But he couldn't, so you died
But unfortunately, you died

I don't like it, now you're dead
I dislike that you are no more

It's not the same when I scratch my own head
Everything seems different now when I'm on my own

I haven't got the nails for it
I am not good enough to do it on my own

And I know that God doesn't exist
I believe that God does not exist

And all of the palaver surrounding it
And all the fuss and discussion about it

But I like to think you hear me sometimes
But I like to believe that you can hear me at times

So I reached for a borrowed fleece
Therefore, I took a borrowed fleece

From my dad or from Denise
Either from my father or Denise

Always trying to keep warm, when you're the sun
I always try to keep myself warm, without you who shone like the sun

I sat with you beside your bed and cried
I sat with you beside your bed and wept

For things that I wish I'd said
For things that I wish I could tell you

You still had your nose red
You still had a red nose

And if I live past seventy-two, I hope I'm half as cool as you
Even if I live beyond seventy-two years old, I wish to be only half as cool as you

I got my pen and thought that I'd write
I took out my pen and decided to write

A melody and line for you tonight
A tune and lyrics for you tonight

I think that's how I make things feel alright
I think that's how I find comfort in this situation

Made in my room, this simple tune
I created this simple tune in my room

Will always keep me close to you
It will always make me feel close to you

The crowds will sing their voices ring
The crowds will sing and their voices will resonate

And it's like you never left
And it feels as though you never left

But I'm bereft you see
But I am feeling empty as you can understand

I think you can tell
I think you can see that

I haven't been doing too well
Things have not been going well for me
