How I Miss Sally Bray - The Wombats

My hand hovers over a button of self-destruct

It won’t let me press down, oh, I wish that it would

I’ve lost something that was an integral part of me

She lived in a red-brick house in Halewood

She wore a hearing aid that screamed louder than us

I’ve lost someone that was an integral part of me

«Ignorance is bliss», she preached to me

But how can I ignore someone that makes me so happy?

Oh, Sally, where’d you go?

Oh, Sally, where’d you go?

Sally, where’d you go?

It’s not impeccable wit that makes me smile

But it’s a shock to the heart that only lasts a short while

And she had something that made me fall to my knees

She had no respect for the rules of Trivial Pursuit

And her temper had never even lit its fuse

Her purple hair and smile were the highlight of my holidays

Ignorance is bliss, she preached to me

But how can I ignore someone that makes me so happy?

Oh, Sally, where’d you go?

Oh, Sally, where’d you go?

Sally, where’d you go?

How I miss, how I miss, oh, how I miss you, Sally Bray

That she taught me a night for all the things I could have said

How I love, how I love, oh, how I love you, Sally Bray

That she taught me a night for all the love I could have gave

How I miss, how I miss, oh, how I miss you, Sally Bray

That she taught me a night for all the things I could have said

How I love, how I love, oh, how I love you, Sally Bray

That she taught me a night for all the love I could have gave

How I miss, how I miss, oh, how I miss you, Sally Bray

That she taught me a night for all the things I could have said

How I love, how I love, oh, how I love you, Sally Bray

That she taught me a night for all the love I could have gave

Oh, Sally

Oh, Sally

Oh, Sally, where’d you go?

Sally, where’d you go?

Sally, where’d you go?

Sally, where’d you go?
