and i don't know what it is but i think i like you

and i think i'd like it if you liked me too

and i don't know what it is but i think i like you

and i think i'd like it if you liked me too

and i don't know what it is but i think i like you

and i think i'd like it if you liked me too

things are different since that you're there

this must be that thing they call love

my vision shift from grey to colour

this must be that thing they call love

things are different since that you're there

my vision shift from grey to colour

this must be that thing they call love

this must be that thing they call love

it's been four or five years since we talked now but i

never thought so high of any girl in all of my life

i thought you were gorgeous

warm and bright

you taught me all sorts and brought me to life

l'amour and more besides

when you spoke to my folks you were always polite

though you always tried to hide that you were awfully shy

and how you'd always call me gorgeous was nice

i saw in your eyes i was more than just like

some sort of ordinary guy of the ordinary type

it all just seemed right when you joined me at night

then lay nattering

chatting and talking 'til light

i was that infatuated i could fall for you twice

we'd take lonely walks in august with spice

make phone calls and talk 'til morning sunrise

you were so great i thought you must have fallen from the sky

i couldn't wait for the day i could call you my wife

and gaze at your face through morning and night

safely sailing away with my glorious bride

it's a shame that my mates didn't warn me in time

you were faithless and fake

it was all just a lie

you gave no warning

or a goodbye

you just stalled me

ignoring my calls and the like

so inform me - were you always unkind

or did you morph to this poor form

absorbed in your spite

that liked to torture me with scornful calls

taunt me with guys

flaunt them right by me and causing these fights

you were warping my mind with all of your lies

but i bet your side of the story's forty leagues from mine

sure

you just sort of got bored of me

right?

once the source of your light

now a thorn in your side

i'm a cautious guy so it tore me inside

it floored me forlornly cos i thought we were tight

i missed most of sixth form

withdrawn from my life

spent all my nights smoking draw

drinking wine

when i saw you i'd go maudlin and cry

when i thought of you lying with some poor other guy

i had violent thoughts of all different types

and all through the times you would call me up crying

you didn't even inform me you were poorly or why

so of course i had a reason or a cause to be frightened

i thought i'd be caught in causing your suicide

so i pray for your sake that you sorted your life

but christ

falling for you was an unfortunate choice

and yeah

i've been a wanker

i've been an arsehole

but leave it at that and the track's only half told

when i'm an old cold man with a hardened soul

i'll look back on the past as that when i had a heart of gold

but in my heart there's a hole

that you made

and it's taken ages to get the heartache controlled

it'd taken a hold

taken its toll

making me wholly incapable of attaining my goals

the strain of the whole weight on my shoulders

is aching

my composure is breaking

i'm going insane

oh god

you were mine

and mine forever

a minor error

you were mine
