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
Spent the night all tangled tied
In an armchair in my friends front room.
I said darling you know, darling you know I cant stay.
Cause I?ve given my heart and my word to a girl far away.
I spoke soft, pretended to cough like I didn?t care either way
Never knew I could get my heart broken, in less than a day.
Well the next time that I saw her,
Must have been a year or more.
Face stained with mascara
Shivering outside my door
I did my best to assure her,
But assurance ain?t easy to give
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
Cause Iv given my hear and my word to a boy far away
I fell weak as she kissed my cheek,
Inside when I heard her say.
Never knew I could get my heart broken in so many ways
Ooooh ohhhh ohhh ohh
Well the last time that I saw her
Standing in the pouring rain
Hair looked a little shorter
Everything else looked the same
I coulda told her that I adored her
She coulda said she felt the same way
We just smiled cause sometimes words aren?t the right words to say
