"Neverneverlandmine" Lyrics

Don’t act as if you cared

Your kisses fell like missiles as her best friend stared

Giggling as we hid beneath your hat

-That two adults could act as bad as that

 

We tripped the Neverneverlandmine

I’d said that you were just a friend of mine

Two little monkeys playing after dark

And now we’re looking at some corner time

 

Had you sent up a flare-

I still would just have closed my eyes and stayed right there

If I could draw a picture of my wife-

You’d find more passion in an old still life

 

We tripped the Neverneverlandmine

I’d said that you were just a friend of mine

Two little monkeys playing after dark

And now we’re looking at some corner time

 

Return a phone call, drop a hint or two

Show some concern or just a point of view

Avoid the fact that I’m in love with you

I’m a big boy- true

I just wish I could wear a man’s shoes

 

I’ve got a son who says he’d rather die

He’s got a dad who wishes he could fly

 

We tripped the Neverneverlandmine

I’d said that you were just a friend of mine

Two little monkeys playing after dark

And now we’re looking at some corner time

 

Return a phone call, drop a hint or two

Show some concern or just a point of view

Avoid the fact that I’m in love with you

I’m a big boy- true

I just wish I could wear a man’s shoes

 

I’m not sure how I should feel

Or to whom I should be sending my appeal

But I think I’ve found the wound that I must heal

 

We tripped the Neverneverlandmine

And you still say you’re just a friend of mine

I guess it’s left to me to do the time

I’m a big boy- true

I just hope I can wear a man’s shoes
