lyrics

I was crying in the KFC on South Clerk Street,
Telling my friend: “this is the end”.
All I wanted was to stay in bed,
But she told me to go out instead
And have fun, take a break from your own head.
You need to take back control, of your body, mind & soul
for once in your life, take what you want don’t think twice.
Well that’s sound advice!

Took a while for me to get there,
I set out east in the cold night air,
And I thought of how I missed her, the girl I used to be
Told my reflection in the window, tonight I’ll just be me.

Sat down, got myself a pint, I told myself it’ll be alright
I’ll survive this, for just one more night,
Then in you rolled, delayed by a last minute goal.

There you were, standing before me.
Making conversation that didn’t bore me
Of all of the bars, of all of the guys,
I had to admit you took me by surprise,
Oh my. Green shirt, blue eyes.

There you were, standing before me.
Making conversation that didn’t bore me
Of all of the bars, of all of the guys,
I had to admit you took me by surprise,
Oh my. Green shirt, blue eyes.
