The Clothes Show

[No lyrics]

. . .



The Teddington rain
The mac, the mail
You run for the train
No leaves on the rail
The files on the desk
The broken step
The thought of her hair
Can take you there

Will you never ever see her again?
Will you never ever see her again?
Will you never ever see her again?
Autumn sand

The season has changed
The train back home
The weather seems strange
Since you've been alone
You take off your coat
And make the tea
The cat on the rug
Your evening's free

Will you never ever see her again?
Will you never ever see her again?
Will you never ever see her again?
Autumn sand

Deep, deep in the still of night
And I'm fighting back the tears
Up, out of the city lights
Where only I can hear

Promises, all he ever makes is promises
Do they come from deep inside his heart?
I was captured by his lies
And the passion in his eyes
Tomorrow never dies

He put a spell on me
Like so many other girls
Words are no guarantee
Of a better world

Oh, loving him, I'm so crazy for loving him
But there's only cold inside his heart
Using words to hypnotise
Taking cities as his prize
Tomorrow never dies

Hey, where did the sunshine go?
I remember summer nights
Warm not so long ago
In his arms so tight

Promises, all he ever made were promises
Did they come from deep inside him?
Oh, loving him, I'm so crazy for loving him
But there's only cold inside
And I know that he's never gonna let me go
'Cause tomorrow never dies


. . .

Please, please tell me
You'll always feel this way
Please be the one
Forever and a day

Please, oh, please
Just say it's you and me
Forever

Please, please tell me
It's heaven when we kiss
Please be the one
Your kisses I will miss

Here in your arms
Holding me oh so tight
I pray to the stars
That twinkle above tonight


. . .



I fell in and out of love
Didn't matter where
Didn't matter why
I know

Why does Amanda feel so down?
Karl puts her taw into the ground
Write this up, Wakeys in her hand
Stop by stop she never looks back
Smiles at the faces all around

Why does Amanda feel so down?
Green jacket grey but never found
Scott flies out and trailing behind
Ask no questions, never you mind
Pride took a tumble in this town

Is there a better way than what we know of?
Anger swelling through the dead of night time too
Do we know better ways than what we're showing?
Laughter breaking through the shadow's hour

Are we gonna be alright?
Are we gonna be alright?
Some are never gonna get as close
As we have learnt to
And even if they might
We'd end up alright
Summer's never gonna be the same again

You never felt it once - the breath of Heaven
Swept away the heroes from my mind
And still you talk of him as being greater
But no one's ever gonna reach us now


. . .

Baby, you're making me want you
And baby, you're making me love you

We're in the city, city
Making me want you
We're in the city, city
Making me love you
Making me care

In the city your footsteps float in the air
In the city at night there's no one else there
In the city, it's the only old street lamps that care
In the city they took all the new ones away
You wind down a window to let in some light
Through the metal and glass and billboards at night
And pausing to catch a breath in the rain
In the city you're home again... again
