Hampstead: Song Meaning and Key Details

I LEFT MY HEART AT A PUB IN HAMPSTEAD

AND I MISPLACED MY MIND IN A GOOD WAY

THREW AWAY MY REPUTATION BUT SAVED US MORE HEARTACHE

YES I KNOW IT SEEMS FUCKED UP, AND YOU'RE RIGHT

BUT QUITE FRANKLY YOU'RE STILL WRONG ABOUT EVERYTHING

SO FAR OFF YOUR SEAT'S NOWHERE NEAR THE TABLE

BUT I FIND SOMETHING SWEET IN YOUR PECULIAR BEHAVIOR

I DO, I DO, I DO, I DO

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK YOU'RE EVEN INVITED

THE DOORS ARE CLOSED WITH LIGHTS OFF INSIDE AND

ALL THE WHILE

THERE'S NO ONE HOME, YOU'RE STILL OUTSIDE

I WONDER WHY

WHAT'S WRONG

WITH A LITTLE BIT OF POISON

TELL ME

I WOULD RATHER FEEL EVERYTHING THAN NOTHING

EVERY TIME

FEAR ME, STRANGER

A LITTLE BIT OF SUGAR, DANGER

RATHER BE SEEN AND ALIVE THAN DYING BY YOUR

POINT OF VIEW

I DO, I DO, I DO, I DO

I DON'T REMEMBER TOO MUCH OF THE LAST YEAR

BUT I KNEW WHO I WAS WHEN I GOT HERE

AND MY LOVER'S JUST SOME

LINES IN SOME SONGS

MHMM, MHMM, MHMM, MHMM

YOU THINK YOU'VE READ THE BOOK I'M STILL WRITING

I CAN'T IMAGINE WANTING SO BADLY TO BE RIGHT

GUESS I'M FOREVER ON YOUR MIND

I WONDER WHY

WHAT'S WRONG

WITH A LITTLE BIT OF POISON

TELL ME

I WOULD RATHER FEEL EVERYTHING THAN NOTHING

EVERY TIME

FEAR ME, STRANGER

A LITTLE BIT OF SUGAR, DANGER

RATHER BE SEEN AND ALIVE THAN DYING BY YOUR

POINT OF VIEW

RATHER BE SWIMMING WITH YOU

THAN DROWNING IN A CROWDED ROOM

I DO, I DO, I DO, I DO
