Re-mastered by James Savage - June 2020

lyrics

Nicola pours the bubble bath and stares at the screen
He's walking toward her, but lost in the scene
Of one more missed encounter, one more slave to fate
It hasn't forgotten them yet

Did she meet someone else maybe later that day?
When she heard a familiar voice, and she turned away
From the man on the screen, who was maybe the one
Her yearning and loneliness gone

Would he live a life void, with a love unredeemed
With a girl on his arm, of someone else's dreams
Did he love his children, or did he father none
His yearning and loneliness one

Middle section:

You say the sun is rising
How can it be in the dead of night?
Could it be that what I'm missing,
is a view from the other side?

You watch the world go round in circles
wondering if it's alright...

You pull the moon towards you
Like the sea in an endless tide (in an endless tide)
But if the moon ignores you
Part the waves with an elegant stride (with an elegant stride)

Can't you see that the only one who cares about you
is wondering if you're alright?

And if you can't see it coming (see it comin')
You'll never see such a beautiful sight (such a beautiful sight)
If you can then just keep running (just keep runnin'...ooooh ah hah hah)
One day you'll be ahead of the light (be ahead of the light)

And if you couldn't see what's in front of you,
tough shit baby 'cause I'm alright


You saw it comin' (saw it comin')
And you were always right
You pull the moon towards you (towards you)
(and saw it comin')
And you guessed right

I saw it comin' (saw it comin')
And I was always right
You pulled the moon towards you (towards you)
And I got caught in the tide

You drive me crazy
Pulling that face when you think I might
(when you think I might)
Be looking the wrong way (wrong way)
But you can't hide on the telephone line

(How to describe) Just what I'm feeling
So think of a word that you know will rhyme
(that you know will rhyme)
(with the words) With the words you're reading
(which words)(reading)
From the previous line, and you'll guess right

Instrumental section:

So she remained a mystery, never knowing she could
Have been his life's love, If only she'd looked
At the man on the screen, when she turned away
To the old friend she'd see every day.
