"You Stand So Close" lyrics - THE UNDERTONES

If it's a fact some things won't ever change
Will your sympathies remain the same?

I don't care, if you won't care (ah, ah)
You stand so close (ah, ah)
But you're never there

You break my heart like you confess you do
So who can I send the pieces to?

I don't care, if you won't care (ah, ah)
You stand so close (ah, ah)
But you're never there
You stand so close (ah, ah)
But you're never there

Predictably you made a fool of me
With your feeble excuse of what's the use
Of worrying about anything?
I know you won't wait 'cause it's always too late
I know you won't wait for me to calculate
The time it takes for the mess it's made of us

With propriety must we pretend?
What could be has gone again

I don't care, if you won't care (ah, ah)
You stand so close (ah, ah)
But you're never there

If I've been good you never tell me so
With love like that I'll never know

I don't care if you won't care (ah, ah)
You stand so close (ah, ah)
But you're never there (ah, ah)
You stand so close (ah, ah)
But you're never there

(Ah, ah) You stand so close (ah, ah)
But you're never there (ah, ah)
You stand so close (ah, ah)
But you're never there (ah, ah)
You stand so close
