Tender Blue - Everything But The Girl
And still he lies awake at night
Restless while every silence screams
And still she sleeps
Turned to the wall
He fears the onslaught of his dreams
Touches her back
But she doesn't stir
Then round her hands his fingers close
Feeling the ring that cost more than the car
All of those questions that never arose
And still she lies awake at night
Silently stares at the bedroom wall
Feeling his hand, out to touch her back
It's been a month since he started to paint the home
And brightly burns the landing light
The baby's screaming down the hall
She shuts her eyes
And she shuts her ears
She's had it up to here
Cause it's not his baby after all

The story is a sad one, told many times.
The story of my life in trying times.
Just add water, stir in lime.
How the west was won and where it got us.
R.E.M.
