The
night we met there were no fireworks
The
night we met there were no sparks
We
were like two damp squibs in a rainstorm
We
stumbled on each other in the dark
I’ve
seen incandescent lights that brand themselves behind your eyes
And
after they burn out that’s all you see
And
nothing made me think that night we’d ever set the world alight
Which
goes to show how blind you can be
And if I lost
you now all the lights in my world would go out
And in the cold
dark night it’s a long crawl back to the light
I
remember trying to start a conversation
I
nearly gave up trying in the end
You
were moody as a rainy Monday morning
And
I was weary as a wet weekend
And
I remember at the outset thinking I could live without this
If
you’d told me then that I would change my mind
Well
I would never have believed you
Cos
I could really take or leave you
Which
goes to show you have to give things time
And if I lost
you now all the lights in my world would go out
And in the cold
dark night it’s a long crawl back to the light
I
was in the darkness: how was I to know?
Cos
it started as a flicker but it came to light the corners of my soul
And if I lost
you now all the lights in my world would go out
And in the cold
dark night it’s a long crawl back to the light
