I wore my satin dress tonight, my silver high-heeled I dabbed my skin sweet perfume, the one you helped me choose I did my hair the way you like, up in a simple You touched my face to take away an eyelash that I You said "Let's not go out tonight, let's not go town" And as you my neck, I said "We can't let people down" And now the over, I don't know what to do I two people fall in love, and one of them... Was you
And now lying only inches apart it might be twenty miles And it's a quiet kind of dying As I see your smiles The air is loaded with we cannot say I try to hold you, but you and turn away I myself we're not estranged But in one evening, changed
You held my hand as we walked in, each I recall I moved the party making small-talk, very small You were in conversation with a girl I didn't know She me of someone else: me, ten years ago I found you still there two hours later, long time to leave I wonder, did you know I saw her hand your sleeve? Then you drove or was it me? The journey is a blur I two people fall in love, and one of them... Was her
And now we're lying inches apart Though it be twenty miles And it's a kind of dying inside As I see your smiles The air is loaded with things we say I try to hold you, but you sigh and turn I tell we're not estranged But in one evening, everything's
And now two people lie beside other in the dark One sleeps, the other cannot, and dissects each remark The satin dress its hanger shimmers like a ghost To the transience of things we've loved the most The silver shoes are in their box, not aside in haste And as you turn the off, your kiss is strangely chaste Now our familiar feels terrible and new I watched two people in love, and one of them was you
And now lying only...
And it's a kind of...
The air is loaded with we cannot say...
I myself...
changed.
