loves ashes
cinders burning
these arms that once held you
like a sunset and the sea
like a sneaky thief
like the gulls flapping wings
how quickly we've ended up, strangers
just a flicker in my eye
like smoke from a fire
a child in a chair
your clever eyes
your long brown hair
as the shopkeepers closed
crowds passed us by
time has no patience
as we say goodbye
just a flicker in my eye
the rainy pavement's glimmering
like a hundred sparks gone white
and in your heart you feel it don't you
when it is all over
it is all over
it is all over
and so i teased you
to ease the air
when sadness is stinging
when there's no reply
Just a flicker in my eye
Just a flicker in my eye
Just a flicker in my eye
