It’ll Take More Than A Weekend Away To Fix This Mess (Remastered 2022)
[Verse 1]
So I'll lie awake and I'll stare at the tall magnesium walls
Japanese lilies lie limp like the seller on a stall
Is he still there? And do you still care?

[Verse 2]
The Hilton hotel
An apology holiday for those that can't talk it through
Shuffle to the dining room, table for two

[Pre-Chorus]
And so starters are ordered
And you're both gonna pay
And you've already run out of things to say
It's such a lovely gesture, but I must stress

[Chorus]
It'll take more than a weekend away to fix this mess
More than a weekend away to fix this mess
More than a weekеnd away to fix this mess
It'll take more than a weekеnd away to fix this mess

[Verse 3]
So I can't get to sleep
'Cause these pillows, they aren't mine
And the mattress feels like it's too good
For my spine
I wish we were at home
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, what started as an escape route for the two of us
Escalated into something that's unjust
Again, it's such a lovely gesture, but you know I must stress

[Chorus]
It'll take more than a weekend away to fix this mess
UHT milk, Bible, and writing desk
More than a weekend away to fix this mess
It'll take more than a weekend away to fix this mess

[Outro]
It'll take more than a weekend away to fix this mess
It'll take more than a weekend away to fix this mess
It'll take more than a weekend away to fix this mess
More than a weekend away to fix this mess
It'll take more than a weekend away to fix this mess
It'll take more than a weekend away to fix this mess
