Текст песни The Letter - Adrian Der Gregorian

I just can't take this anymore
I'm gonna take the kids away
For a day or two, I'm not sure

I know I'm not one for talkin'
But I think you know we should
So if you're ever around
You never know, might do some good

And I can't do this on my own
No more
And I need you 'round
Or else, what is this all for?

I need you to stand beside me
I need you to be my wife
It's such a simple thing
I need you in my life

You know what there sayin' at work
I'd tell you if you were ever here
Read the right act, keep her in line
Get her in the house, and you out for a beer

You know what I'd say straight to their face
I'd tell you if you were ever here
I'm proud of my wife, at least she's got guts
And more brains than me and you, that's clear

But I can't do this on my own
No more
And I need you 'round
Or else, what is this all for?

I need you to stand beside me
I need you to be my wife
It's such a simple thing
I need you in my life

Well, you shoulda seen the state of the place
The state of your son and daughter
We ran out of milk last night
So breakfast was cornflakes and water

And yes, I burnt the toast
And the sausage and eggs, too
And this stupid washing machine
Well, it only listens to you

And oh, that lovely shirt
We bought for Sharon in Canning Town
Well, it used to be pink but I ironed it
Now it's more shit brown

And when I had to clean the bog
I tell you man, it's scary
I couldnt find the bleeding bleach
I had to use the fairy

And I can't do this on my own
No more
And I need you 'round
What the fuck is this all for?

I need you to stand beside me
I need you to be my wife
I need you to understand
You're the light that lights my life

I hope you didn't get in too late
Hope the meeting went alright
I hope you've done yourself proud
And by the way, the kids say
Goodnight
