'What the hell has urinated on me?', I thought
While I, stark naked, made up a new bed
And I actually didn't want
The alarm to ring again
While you lie next to me
And blow-dry my fear-sweat
Today's gonna be a wonderful day
Thought you'd walked out the door, but you're here
Never thought I'd ever say something like that
I've never talked so much schmaltz before, whatever!
You give me a basket, I lie down in it
Maybe the cup size's big enough for two?
Maybe I say it differently than I mean it
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards you always know afterwards
Afterwards you always know afterwards
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards I don't wanna know
What it'd been like without you
My art of hurting you
Really isn't my style
But how are you supposed to get that
When I keep doing it over and over?
I've got a speech defect
I promise you too much
How heavy's a word when you keep it
How heavy's a word that just fell
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards you always know afterwards
Afterwards you always know afterwards
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards I don't wanna know what it'd been like without you
I think I've lost something on you
I don't want it back anymore
It looks way better on us
Than to adorn me alone
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards you always know afterwards
Afterwards you always know afterwards
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards you always know
Afterwards I don't wanna know what it'd been like without you
