Four years and twenty-two shades of blonde Is all that seperated us Why couldn’t we have carried on? We could have got married You could have carried some of my sons (Same chords throughout) You let me change the radio Station in your car Do you remember that time I raised my voice Because you said you’d never ever heard of the La’s You continued to get intimidated But then your finger tips wrapped round those knuckles of mine The fear walked home and your smile returned And all of a sudden everything was fine But those days have passed And these types of relationship never last    So please don’t         pretend    that we’ll stay friends     (SAME AS ABOVE)       Because you know as well as I do that that well that just it never happens Well no that just never happens How come I always see you out With those boys that we used to argue about? You walk over all flustered and stuff Telling everyone inside That you’ve had enough You spend eighty five per cent of your night Trying to make me understand Why you were standing so close while you’re kissing him Why you left that place holding his hand Oh darling can’t you see That it’s got fuck all to do with me? Please don’t pretend that we’ll stay friends Cause you know as well as I do that that well that just it never happens

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque une relation passée où des souvenirs joyeux se mêlent à la tristesse d'un amour perdu. L'auteur se remémore des moments simples et intimes, comme le partage d'une station de radio ou des disputes sur la musique, mais il réalise que ces jours-là sont derrière eux. Il exprime une déception face à la progression de la vie et aux nouvelles relations de l'autre, soulignant que tenter de rester amis serait illusoire. Le contexte est celui d'une rupture, où l’ancienne complicité est remplacée par des maladresses et de nouveaux partenaires. Il y a une nostalgie palpable, mais aussi une prise de conscience que certaines relations ne peuvent pas perdurer, même quand on essaie de garder un lien.
