Nobody's perfect, and that's something that
  I'm sure she'll know
  'Cos trying to tell her lies from the truth at times
  Is like trying to divide ice from snow
  When I knew it was over, I jumped into a taxi
  And said, "Just guess where to go"
  And the driver turned about and said,
  "Finding what you want is like
  Trying to divide ice from snow"
  
  So here I sit, rolling back to bed
  Knowing love is a hazard
  That I'd never guessed
  But from this side of the morning
  I couldn't care less
  
  Nobody's helpless, although
  I've never felt this helpless before
  And trying to persuade myself not to think about her
  Is like trying to tell the clouds not to pour
  So I put down the bottle
  While in my head time is collapsing
  and the currents run cold
  So I can curse her memory
  But don't try telling me that she was not
  An emerald in a mountain of coal
  Or that there's a crock of cures for cancer
  at the end of the rainbow
  
  So here I sit, rolling back to bed
  Knowing love is a hazard
  That I'd never guessed
  But from this side of the morning
  I couldn't care less
  
  And she's the kind of girl who won't forgive
  But will forget
  So take me frome this party, driver,
  Put me back to bed
  I wanted to be loved but just got laughed at instead
  So if this taxi is for hire
  I'll get in the back
  Just to hear the friction of the tarmac and the tyres
  
  So nobody's perfect, and that's something that
  I'm sure she'll know
  And trying to persuade myself
  Not to think about her is like
  Trying to tell the cockerels not to crow
  Or like trying to tell the striker
  Not to think about the goal
  
  So here I sit, rolling back to bed
  Knowing love is a hazard
  That'd I'd never guessed
  But from this side of the morning
  I couldn't care less
