Words

Well the first time that I saw her

Standing in the middle of the road

Eyes just 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

Cause I've given my heart and my word to a girl far away

I felt weak and she kissed my cheek and aside 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've been a year or more

Face stained with mascara

She ran outside my door

I did my best to asure her

But assurance isn't easy to give

Can never be sure of anything much

And get less old the longer you live

She said: darling you know, darling you know I can't stay

Cause I gave my heart and my word to a boy far away

I spoke soft and pretended to cough like I didin't care anyway

Never knew I could get my heart broken in so many ways

The last time that i saw her

Standing in the pouring rain

Hair a little shorter, but everything else looked the same

I could've told her that I adored her

She could've said she felt the same way

But we just smiled cause sometimes words

Aren't the right words to say

We just smiled cause sometimes words

Aren't the right words to say
