Divorce, The - Redcoats Lyrics

Complimentary "Redcoats" Ringtone

Every time I reach into my pocket 
I find your number on a pack of matches 
I can't expect you to understand 

You used to keep my picture in your locket 
While at my border all your troops lined up for action 
Now I just want someone to hold my hand 

You could've warned me 
You could've said 

"Here come the redcoats 
With their coats all red 
All along 
All along 
All along the promenade 
The promenade" 
That would've been good 

Instead you said that one thing 
That thing you said 
That I forgot 
I forgot 
I forgot 
Was kind of odd 
Kind of odd 
That would've been... 

We were created in a crumbling lab 
By a maker with a shaky hand 
And a pension for truant love 

And if you think about that 
It makes sense 

You could've warned me 
You could've said 

"Here come the redcoats 
With their coats all red 
All along 
All along 
All along the promenade 
The promenade" 
That would've been good 

Instead you said that one thing 
That thing you said 
That I forgot 
I forgot 
I forgot 
Was kind of odd 
Kind of odd 
That would've been good 

Oh, baby, 
I want to take you home 
But I can't cuz I'm home ((less)) 
Home ((less)) 
Home ((less)Home ((less))) 
Oh, honey, 
I'm holding on to hope 
But it's hard cuz I'm hope ((less)) 
Hope ((less)) 
Hope ((less)) 
Hope ((less)) 

You could've warned me 
You could've said 

"Here come the redcoats 
With their coats all red 
All along 
All along 
All along the promenade 
The promenade" 
That would've been good 

Instead you said that one thing 
That thing you said 
That I forgot 
I forgot 
I forgot 
Was kind of odd 
Kind of odd 
That would've been good 

Oh, I guess that I could fall for you...
cause I fall for all kinds of bad jokes.
