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
