Peaches and cream
Where have you been?
Did you know I've been waiting all night?
Whose bed were you in?
Whose head were you turning?
Don't you know I've been out of my mind
Cause I know what you fear you will find...
...oh why...
Sweetness and light
I don't want to fight you
But I don't want to listen to lies
Your face is a mess
You know you should drink less
I said I don't want to hear how time flies
Cause I know from the look in your eyes
You were talking to some girl
Who'd seen you on her TV set
She said that she felt like she knew you
Although you'd only just met...
Oh yeah...
Ohh Don't stop talking shop
I'll see you down the time swap
I've been tested and tried
Lost on the tide
So cold inside
Do you know I've been out of my mind?
Cause I know what you fear you will find
You were talking to some girl
Who said that she'd seen you before
Oh my head's such a mess
Till I hear you key in the door...
...Oh yeah...
...Oh Yeah.
