Lyrics

[00:01.05] The heavens were alive with stars
[00:04.30] She pointed out which one was Mars
[00:07.71] Lying arm in arm against an old tree trunk
[00:14.25] She used a phrase of Holly Golightly’s from ‘Breakfast At Tiffany’s’
[00:18.09] She said: “Don’t take me home until I’m drunk. Very drunk indeed!”
[00:29.68]
[00:42.08] We talked about a second date
[00:45.82] She said that meeting me was fate
[00:49.26] And, though I don’t believe in that crap, I said: “Yes”
[00:55.94] We both knew where the night would end
[00:59.44] But when we kissed, I won’t pretend,
[01:02.97] I still shook with apprehension, I confess
[01:09.09] And then I said: “I could fall in love with you”
[01:16.61] But, as I recall, she said: “I like you too”
[01:23.36]
[01:24.26] And that little word was the warning sign
[01:27.62] That little word meant she’d never be mine,
[01:30.84] as I discovered the next day
[01:34.08] A text on my phone saying
[01:36.26] “I don’t know whether I mentioned him last night,
[01:39.54] but I’m getting back together with my old fiancé
[01:43.71] I’m sorry, by the way”
[01:48.81]
[02:06.00] And, when I think about that night,
[02:09.70] I wonder if perhaps I might not have done every single thing I could
[02:19.50] But, deep down, I know I was blind;
[02:23.05] she just used me to make up her mind
[02:26.30] But if I had to do it all again, I would
[02:31.80] And then I said: “I could fall in love with you”
[02:39.90] But, as I recall, she said: “I like you too”
[02:46.78] Yeah, I could fall in love with you
[02:54.01] But as I recall, she said: “I like you too”
[03:02.68]
