If I were a time traveller
I'd climb inside my travelling ship
And take a trip to find myself
A week ago
And if myself could see me
And hear what now-me had to say
I wonder how I'd phrase it all
To make me understand
Because last week me
Was a blissful bumbling idiot
Bang-crash-landing through my days
With nothing special on my mind
Yeah, last week me
Was that carefree caring safe guy
I was happy as a little mayfly
Wasn't noticing the time
Slipping by, by, by
Slipping by, by, by
And if I were a time traveller
I'd tell myself to spend some time with you
To stroke your hair and smell you for remembrance
While I still could
But then I'd have to tell me
The horror of the days to come
That happy me just living in the moment
And lying in the sun
And last week me
Was cocooned from doom-dread-brooding
Bang-crash-landing through my days
Assuming everything's fine
Yeah, last week me
Was that carefree caring safe guy
I was happy as a little mayfly
Swooping skyward in the sunshine
Oh, last week me
Didn't have a code to live by
Thought you'd always be by my side
Wasn't noticing the time
Slipping by, by, by
Slipping by, by, by
Slipping by, by, by
If I were a time traveller
I'd write myself a cryptic song
And play it on the radio
One morning
And in that song I'd tell me
To hold you tight and never let you go
To grab my gun and climb up on my rooftop
And fire out a warning
And last week me
Might have stopped washing the dishes
Might have covered you in kisses
Before I'd wiped my hands dry
Yeah, last week me
Might have said, Come sit beside me
Might have emptied out the diary
Sunny day, let's go outside
Oh, but last week me
Was a blissful bumbling idiot
Bang-crash-landing through my days
With life's detritus on my mind
Yeah, last week me
Didn't know your hours were counted
Took your warm fresh face for granted
Didn't stop to say goodbye
Say good-bye, bye, bye
Say good-bye, bye, bye
Say good-bye, bye, bye
Say good-bye
