Words |
Well the first time that I saw her |
Standing in the middle of the road |
Eyes as bright as Christmas lights |
Wearing someone else’s clothes |
I did my best to ignore her |
But ignoring my best pretty soon |
We spent the night all tangled tight |
In an armchair in my friend’s front room |
I said darling you know, darling you know I can’t stay |
'Cos I’ve given my heart and my word to a girl far away |
I felt weak as she kissed my cheek, and sighed when I heard her say |
«Never knew I could get my heart broken in less than a day» |
Oh and the next time that I saw her |
Must have been a year or more |
Face stained with mascara |
Shiverin' outside my door |
I did my best to assure her |
But assurance isn’t easy to give |
If you’ve never been sure of anything much |
You get less so the longer you live |
She said «darling, you know, darling, you know I can’t stay |
'Cos I’ve given my heart and my word to a boy far away» |
I spoke soft and pretended to cough, like I didn’t care either way |
Never knew I could get my heart broken, in so many ways |
And the last time that I saw her |
Standing in the pouring rain |
Hair a little shorter |
But everything else looked the same |
I could’a told her that I adored her |
She could’a said she felt the same way |
But we just smiled 'cos sometimes words |
Aren’t the right words to say |
We just smiled 'cos sometimes words |
Aren’t the right words to say |
