Momus You've Changed
Me and her and the ghost of you
You and him and the ghost of me
Two plus one is three and two plus a ghost is three
I guess there must be six of us now
I remember you telling me
That even though you loved him like a brother
There's always be another hanging over you
The ghost of your ex-lover
There are six of us
The ghost no longer resembles me
Younger, more good-looking
Like my memories of you are
More permanent and truer
Than the girl I see before me
Are we real or are we spirits
You've changed but your face has stayed the same
In my memories of you I still feel a little pain
But I've changed too
Don't let's talk about faithfulness
Now that there are six of us
Don't get possessive, it's melodramatic
It's not love, it's mathematics
There are six of us now
You've changed
But your face has stayed the same
In my memories of you I still feel a little pain
But I've changed too
You've changed and I'm looking at your face
But the feelings that I feel are in another time and place
You've changed, you're more vulnerable now
But the arrogance you had was beautiful somehow
You've changed and your boyfriend hangs about
He wants to know if I'm the one he's heard so much about
You've changed and the passion fades away
And politeness takes its place
But I long to kiss your face
