Yellow Venus lyrics - The Cribs

Yellow Venus

I just can't do it

Yellow Venus

And all the places you will go

I found a reason

To try and leave my home

But across the ocean

I hang the phone up, let you go

Never really

Said with feeling

All the words that I had spoke

Became nothing

More than a promise I had broke

Now that I'm older

It feels like just a cruel joke

To say I'm sorry

Just like we watched the flowers wilt

You can make your choice and stand by it

Or run away and feel like shit

In a clearing

Of a place I used to go

I determined

To try and leave my home

But across the ocean

I hang the phone up, let you go

Never really

Never really

Never really
