"Tina" lyrics

Tina
Saw her this morning on the train
She's playing games
Sometimes she changes the colour of her hair
Or her skin
Does she still wear the T-shirt
With the horizontal stripes?
The one she wore
The night I almost spoke to her

Tina's always attentive to my needs
We're really good together
'Cause we never meet
Tina
Yes. Tonight I have been thinking about
Tina

Tina
Do you remember walking past me in the snow?
14 years ago
Or on the escalator last Saturday
You were wearing rainbow gloves
With matching socks
What a display
Of everyday sexuality

Although we've never spoken
Or exchanged e-mails
We got a strong connection
It just can't fail

Tina
Tina
Yes. Tonight I have been thinking about

Scenes from a marriage that never took place
Although I did once buy a ring
Yeah

Tina
There's tantalising and teasing
And I forgot what I was going to say to you
Oh, oh
Oh Tina
What are you like?

Tina
There is no alternative
But I got to live (You know)
And I ain't living on my own, oh no
All those places we never met
Near misses
Your lipstick on my coffee cup

Screwing in a charity shop
On top of black bin bags
Full of donations
The smell of digestive biscuits in the air
Welcome back to Dreamland
We all know your name
T-I-N-A, still reads her book on the train

Tina
Tina
Tina
Well, tonight I have been thinking about
Tina
