lyrics

(nine times)

Three words arrived and I have read them all night
Landed, all good, and a full stop at the end
There is nothing in that message to reread
And I have read it nine times anyway

Nine times (nine times)
There's nothing there, nine times
I know there's nothing there, nine times
Nine times

Nine times, nine times, nine times, nine times
Three words cannot mean more the ninth time round
Nine times, nine times, nine times, nine times
And still I open it and still I look

He wrote it before he got his bag. I worked that out.
Eleven minutes from the wheels down to my phone.
That is not nothing. That is the opposite of nothing.
(BASS RETURNS)

Nine times, nine times, nine times, nine times
Three words cannot mean more the ninth time round
Nine times, nine times, nine times, nine times
And still I open it and still I look

(nine times...)
