Words Lyrics

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 week 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 a**ure her ,
but a**urance 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 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
