Lyrics
Salisbury
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Somewhere in your eyes that very special glow
Something drawing me to where I do not know
I never really thought that I would lose myself
Now I'm going faster than anybody else
You move without a sound and touch me with your hand
Just like the rain that fondles every grain of sand
This thing we're gonna do, it's just for you and me
I'm gonna make it good, good as it can be
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Your kiss is sweeter now, your breath is getting warm
We must take our time and last it through 'til dawn
I wonder will it be, oh, I expect it to
There have been other girls, no one else like yo
I feel a power here I never felt before
And I begin to see what draws us to want more
Oh, girl of all my dreams, please, tell me if I'm wrong
Because I've been blue, but we belong
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
As time passed and all too fast, I just knew we couldn't last
And I guessed that the end was near at hand, oh, yeah
Though we tried our love inside, it just crumpled up and died
What went wrong I will never, never understand
You tell me why
Alone again, how could you leave me?
Alone again, I don't wanna be
Alone again, yeah!
There's a line in a rhyme I was going to send to you
It says, "all that is to be will surely be."
So oh, though you had to go 'cause you needed someone new
Is there still a chance that you'll come back to me?
I want you back, you see
Alone again, how could you leave me?
Alone again, I don't wanna be
Alone again, yeah!
Somewhere in your eyes that very special glow
Something drawing me to where I do not know
I never really thought that I would lose myself
Now I'm going faster than anybody else
You moved without a sound and touched me with your hand
Just like the rains that fondle every little grain of sand
This thing we're gonna do, it's just for you and me
And I'm gonna make it good, just you wait and see
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
