I Saw The Spark

I saw the spark

And nothing can be done

I saw that unmistakeable look

At first recognition

When she walked in the room

The expression in your eyes

Nature taking its course

And there’s nothing I can do

We all get our turn to laugh

And our turn to cry

I’ve had my moments in the light

And I’ve been left behind

Tonight it’s my turn

To sit back and watch sparks fly

When she entered the room

A page turned on my life

I saw the spark

And nothing can be done

I know that look

Cause I’ve been in your position

When she walked in the room

And there’s nothing I can do

But to love you both the more

Second best thing to a cure

My side of the room grows dark

As this new discovery takes centre stage

Those I choose to keep close

Are bound to relate

I feel the jealousy rising up

But I know

Trying to stop these things

Only makes them worse

Still I can’t hide the hurt

I saw the spark

And nothing can be done

I know that unmistakeable look

At first recognition

When she walked in the room

And there’s nothing I can do

But to love you both the more

Second best thing to a cure

At one point in time

I had that moment with both of you

When the meeting overwhelmed

And now you’re introduced

I had given it no thought

But of course it all makes sense

I’ve dreaded this moment

I saw the spark

And nothing can be done

I know that look

Now I'm in the shit position

When she walked in the room

The expression in your eyes

Nature taking its course

And there’s nothing I can do

But to love you both the more

No there’s nothing I can do

But to love you both the more

Second best thing to a cure
