No matter how I try lyrics
by Gilbert O'Sullivan



No matter how I try
I just can't say goodbye
No matter what you say
Looks like I'm here to stay

No matter where I go, oh
I don't know if you know
But everywhere we've been
I'm kept in quarantine

It's easy to see why
She's over six foot five
I'm only five feet two

Is there a tyre somewhere
That might take me as a spare?
Is there a bank in town
That might cash me as a pound?
Is there a place you know
Where I can up and go?
Ohohoho

It's easy to see why
She's over six foot five
I'm only five feet two

Is there a tyre somewhere
That might take me as a spare?
Is there a bank in town
That might cash me as a pound?
Is there a place you know
Where I can up and go?
Ohohoho

I remember our first anniversary
It was one of those occasions where believe you me
I would rather have been held ransom at the point of a gun
Then to suffer indignation for something I hadn't done

Ohohoho, ohohoho

No matter how I try
I just can't say goodbye
No matter what you say
Looks like I'm here to stay
Looks like I'm here to stay

Dodo, dodidodo
