Something Of A Love Song Songtext
Smile at me for I can't read your mind

And your eyes leave too much still unsaid

This moment must be correctly met

Else we'll live in constant regret

I know you hold a torch for another
So let's revel under its yearning light



And if you leave me now then we'll never know

There'll always be a question in your eye

A silence of remembrance or penitence

Your glance broken too late to tell the lie

Of a trust never even tried



We'll move around this wavering torch

Fleeting promises to keep love out of sight
Laugh at the futility of these thoughts

Nothing can stop us being burned again

We are the bearers of many old flames

Let's use them to guide us to bed before they wane



And if you leave me then now we'll never know

There'll always be a question in your eye

A silence of remembrance or penitence

Your glance broken too late to tell the lie

Of a trust never even tried



We can mourn and miss them all we like

But it's so unlikely that they'll return

There's always too much said and not undone

To walk those halcyon paths once again

It's simpler just to take my hand in yours

And we'll make those mistakes again
