If you see her say hello |
|
If she asks how |
|
I'm doing let her know |
|
If she says is he |
|
O.K. say it's slow |
|
But he's coming round |
|
And if you sleep with her |
|
Through the darkest night |
|
And you wake beside her in the early light |
|
Kiss her gently like |
|
I might And bring her round |
|
If she stumbles if she trips and slows |
|
In the darkest rain and through the driving snow |
|
Bring her straight here |
|
I'll be on my own |
|
But bring her round |
|
And every dream and every shadow that you heard |
|
Makes you want to cry ' |
|
Cause it's a big bad world |
|
If you want her let her know |
|
If she's leaving let her go |
|
All of this will pass but it passes slow |
|
And you'll come around |
|
When the wind blows through |
|
October skies |
|
And you wake up in the cold twilight |
|
And you stretch your hand out and there's nothing there but the night |
|
And the darkness is all around |
|
If you see her say hello |
|
If she asks how |
|
I'm doing let her know |
|
If she says is he |
|
O.K. say it slow |
|
But he's coming round |
|
When the rain falls from the blackened sky |
|
There's a heart breaking but it feels alright |
|
See I should have done something but |
|
I let it slide |
|
And I'll come around |
|
Every dream and every shadow that you've heard |
|
Don't make it cry like you want to die |
|
In this big bad world. * |
