I will hold you on the bank of the canal at midnight
I will kiss you on the stairs at the New Year's Party
I will touch you between the platforms of the railway station
But I will only love you when I'm drunk and lonely
I will only love you when I'm drunk and lonely
I will only love you when I'm drunk and lonely, dear
I will taste you on the top deck of the night bus tonight
I will feel you in the back of the cab to your boyfriend's house
I will fuck you in the doorway of your sister's block of flats
But I will only love you when I'm drunk and lonely
Or I'm out on my own when all my friends have left me
Or I've left somebody else because they are disappointing
I will only love you when I'm drunk and lonely, dear
But I will only love you when I'm drunk and lonely
I will only love you when I'm drunk and lonely
I will only love you when I'm drunk and lonely, dear
