It's too cold in this downtown apartment
No furniture so we sit on the carpet
Heating's gone so we fill the bath
with boiling water from the kettle
What a beautiful way to start this
I just met you today for the first time
All I know is your name and your birth sign
I've not got any curtains to draw
only a mattress sat on the floor
Won't you lay with me darling all night?
And I've got a movie we can watch,
we'll eat popcorn from a coffee cup
Not the fanciest place, this home
Down in the downtown apartment
is where two broken hearts went
to see what it feels like to fall for a stranger
Caught in a landslide of something
is this what it feels like to fall for a stranger?
I feel love in this north London flat
Only God knows where I found it at
Maybe fate pulled me into the pub
Just to meet someone who'd give me their love
I just liked how you kissed me like that
Never thought I'd be taking you home
I assumed I'd be sleeping alone
'pologies for the mess that I've made
I wasn't expecting you'd stay at my place
What a beautiful way to start this
And I've got a t-shirt you can wear,
and just a blanket that we both can share
Not the fanciest place, this home
Down in the downtown apartment
is where two broken hearts went
to see what it feels like to fall for a stranger
Caught in a landslide of something
is this what it feels like to fall for a stranger?
And I've been longing to see
what's meant for you and me
but all along I've been falling for a stranger
