Exhilarating Sadness

You were sitting in a cafe

At a table by the Jukebox

Making cups of coffee last for years

You never heard the fanfare

Never saw the sunshine smiling

And then the summer slipped in unnoticed from beneath yourtears.

On the big base rhythm

Shook the room, shook your little heart

And all the talk that whistled through your ears

You were minding your own business

But you were everybody else's

And then the summer slipped in unnoticed from beneath yourtears

Time flew by and you moved on

Shop street days are long since gone

All of the laughter and all of the tears

I still see your likeness through the years

All the girls around you

Were captured by your presence

Elusive features admired and revered

And deep in your eyes I recognised

Exhilarating Sadness

And then the summer slipped out unnoticed from beneath yourtears

And then the summer slipped out unnoticed from beneath

And then the summer slipped out unnoticed from beneath

And then the summer slipped out unnoticed from beneath yourtears
