Could Well Be In [MC Version]

'Cause her last relationship fucked her up

Got hurt majorly, finds it tough to trust

Looked at the ashtray, then looked back up

Spinnin' it away on the tabletop

She looked much fitter than Saturday just

She worked in JD's with Dan

Back then I figured she was pretty damn rough

But she was only wearin' her work stuff

And in these clothes she looked more than buff

She stirred her straw, sat up to adjust

I told her I thought it was important

That you could get lost in conversation

Chattin' shit, sittin' in, oblivion

With that person who's your special one

She said she was the worst pool player under the sun

But blokes go easy so she always won

[Chorus]

I saw this thing on ITV the other week

Said, that if she played with her hair, she's probably keen

She's playin' with her hair, well regularly

So I reckon I could well be in

She didn't look too bored with what I was sayin'

Her hair looked much better than the other day

She had her fingers 'round her hair, playin'

I Saw on the telly that's a good indication

Stood up to buy the next drink though, "Nay."

Suppose that's just our girl's way

I'm tryin' to think what else I could say

Peelin' the label off, spinnin' the ashtray

Yeah actually, yes, she did look pretty neat

Her perfume smelled expensive and sweet

I felt like my hair looked a bit cheap

Wished I'd had it cut back last week

She kept givin' me this look, cause she would speak

Was she only friendly, or was she a keep?

Asked her if she wanted the same again to drink

Started to turn and get up out my seat

[Chorus]

She said that her close mates all were

Always the most important thing to her

I said I thought it was a bit more blurred

She asked what I meant by that as she stirred

I told her about the money and what had occurred

With it goin' missing from the living room, so

With my best mates all there standin' by

Right where I left it, under their eyes

So surely one of them might have spied

What happened to my money at that time

I felt like they were all smilin' on the side

She was like "fair play" she couldn't say why

She didn't know what all my mates were like

And I said she just might be right

Wish I had someone I could always rely

Someone to get lost chattin' to all night

[Chorus]

As I walked back with more drinks to our place

She had her phone stuck to the side of her face

I sat for a minute while she chatted away

'Bout somethin' with her mom and her birthday

Played for a bit with the same ashtray

Thought about things while I sat and waited

It was nice to chat about the shit in my head

Someone who just listens to you instead

I looked at the barman, wiping down again

Looked at the football on the TV set

Tryin' to look like I weren't just waitin' there

For her conversation to come to an end

I look at my watch and realized right then

That, for three hours, been in conversation

Before she put her phone down, she switched to silent

And we carried on chattin' for more than that again

[Chorus: Repeat 2X]
