How Did It Come to This Songtext

von Take That

Just the other day, somebody said to me
'Hey, maybe you're just slightly schizophrenic and a little out of reach my friend'
I said
'Yes, that's partly true'
But jokes aside, I can explain, it's just my way of keeping track
With living on this planet
Now then, have you turned on your TV
Have you seen reality
Have you seen the programme that, you've spent your whole life looking for
There's a girl in Camden town
Indecision makes her frown
Which dress would she wear today and which way should she smile at me

How did it come to this
How did it ever come to this

All the noises, all these lights
All these talkings through the night
All these expectation now it's making me neurotic
Tell me have you seen your face before
I forgot to say 'Hello'
Thought I'd make it clear now
That I've always been a smiler, tell me

How did it come to this
How did it ever come to this
How did it come to this
How did it ever come to this

Sometimes it's like I'm a world away
Sometimes I feel a world away
Just the other day somebody said to me
'Hey maybe you are oh so slightly OCD, a little out of reach my friend'
I said
'Yes, that's partly true'
But jokes aside
Please stay with me
It's just my way of compartmentalising
All the things I see

How did it come to this
How did it ever come to this
How did it come to this
How did it ever come to this
