lyrics

It was the day the words ran out
it was the day they went and left me
it had to be like moving mountains with a song
but I just stood there open mouthed in silence
and it all went wrong

Most of the time I rhyme and scan
and I’ve been recording since records began
but I couldn’t capture such a feeling - no one can
and even when I wrote ‘em down
they fell around
and wouldn’t go to plan

It was the day the words ran out
it was the day I first set eyes on you
it was the day that everything turned inside out
and when your hear t is on the outside
there had better be no doubt

There are promises that can’t be broken
there are some words never meant to be spoken
