You've Changed - Momus

Me and her and the ghost of you

You and him and the ghost of me

Two plus one is three and two plus a ghost is three

I guess there must be six of us now

I remember you telling me

That even though you loved him

Like sister loves a brother

There’ll always be another

Hanging over you, the ghost of your ex-lover

There are six of us

The ghost no longer resembles me

Younger, more good-looking

Like my memories of you are

More permanent and truer

Than the girl I see before me

Are we real or are we spirits?

You’ve changed but your face has stayed the same

In my memories of you I still feel a little pain

But I’ve changed too

Don’t let’s talk about faithfulness

Now that there are six of us

Don’t get possessive, it’s melodramatic

It’s not love, it’s mathematics

There are six of us now

You’ve changed but your face has stayed the same

In my memories of you I still feel a little pain

But I’ve changed too

Don’t let’s talk about faithfulness

Now that there are six of us

Don’t get possessive, it’s melodramatic

It’s not love, it’s mathematics

There are six of us now

Me and her and the ghost of you

You and him and the ghost of me

Two plus one is three and two plus a ghost is three

I guess there must be six of us now

You’ve changed and I’m looking at your face

But the feelings that I feel are in another time and place

You’ve changed, you’re more vulnerable now

But the arrogance you had was beautiful somehow

You’ve changed and your boyfriend hangs about

He wants to know if I’m the one he’s heard so much about

But I’ve changed too

You’ve changed but your face has stayed the same

In my memories of you I still feel a little pain

You’ve changed and the passion fades away

And politeness takes its place, but I long to kiss your face

You’ve changed, you’re more vulnerable now

But the arrogance you had was beautiful somehow

But I’ve changed too
