Starting today we're on holiday

Everybody sees you in the wrong way

No one else sees you my way

Your gazes cripple me

Keep life a mystery

I don't want it to change

Just keep them coming my way

That's all a lie

I can't rationalise

The further I slide

I can't seem to get back to your side

'Cos you're a summer child

And I'm a winter mild

I can't stay with the heat

As you blossom out around me

What if there is nothing after this?

Your gazes cripple me

Keep life a mystery

I don't want it to change

Just keep 'em coming my way
