Another sunny day, I met you up in the garden
|
You were digging plants, I dug you, beg your pardon
|
I took a photograph of you in the herbaceous border
|
It broke the heart of men and flowers and girls and trees
|
|
Another rainy day, we're trapped inside with a train set
|
Chocolate on the boil, steamy windows when we met
|
You've got the attic window looking out on the cathedral
|
And on a Sunday evening bells ring out in the dusk
|
|
Another day in June, we'll pick eleven for football
|
We're playing for our lives the referee gives us fuck all
|
I saw you in the corner of my eye on the sidelines
|
Your dark mascara bids me to historical deeds
|
|
Now everybody's gone you picked me up for a long drive
|
We take the tourist route the nights are light until midnight
|
We took the evening ferry over to the peninsula
|
We found the avenue of trees went up to the hill
|
That crazy avenue of trees, I'm living there still
|
|
There's something in my eye a little midge so beguiling
|
Sacrificed his life to bring us both eye to eye
|
I heard the Eskimos remove obstructions with tongues, dear
|
You missed my eye, I wonder why, I didn't complain
|
You missed my eye, I wonder why, please do it again
|
|
The lovin is a mess what happened to all of the feeling?
|
I thought it was for real; babies, rings and fools kneeling
|
And words of pledging trust and lifetimes stretching forever
|
So what went wrong? It was a lie, it crumbled apart
|
Ghost figures of past, present, future haunting the heart
|
