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 friends 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
 Shivering 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
 And 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've told her that I adored her
 She could've 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
