I saw the sign, blinked once or twice
And the babe you were gone
You took my hand led me blindly to run
Away from all the things that I've lost
I've lost
I took your hand
Led you to a place that you've never been
You turned around and gave me such a sweet grin
I knew then that you were the one
(I knew then that I were the one)
Run around hand and hand
Just smiles and soft white sand
Looking out for number one
Skipping rocks on the river
Till the day is done
And i'm fully convinced
You just might find someone else
(and it scares me to death,
well it scares me too)
Then she walked by,
You could just tell by the look in her eye
You dropped my hand and proceeded to cry
For all of the love that you've lost
(For all of the love that I've lost
I've lost)
Then she walked by
Your skin grew cold
Dropped your hand from my side
Felt my heart melt just like fire on ice
Afraid for my poor broken self
Myself
Run around hand and hand
Just smiles and soft white sand
Looking out for number one
Skipping rocks on the river
Till the day is done
And I'm fully convinced
You just might find someone else
(and I think you did already,
well I just might have, well that's ok)
I woke up there
Wrapped my finger round her curly brown hair
I know you miss me
I wanted you there
But darling i found someone else
(I did, and she's beautiful darling, thank you)
I know that smile
I know that look in your dirty green eyes
I know that girl, know you slept there last night
And darling i don't really care
(oh you don't care, no I don't care, that's crazy)
