Lyrics by tom robinson

Available on the album the fox



Staring all alone

And your grace and style

Cut me to the bone

With your razor blade smile

I watched you playing pool

It's all around the school that i love you



I love your gypsy hair

And dark brown eyes

Always unprepared

For your pointed replies

Cynical and lean

I lie awake and dream about you





If you only knew

What i'm going through

Time and again i get ashamed

To say your name

It's hard to grin and bear

When you're standing there

My lips are dry

I catch your eye and look away





Sitting in my room

I've got it bad

Crying for the moon

They think i'm mad

They say it isn't real

But i know what i feel and i love you





But i would give my life

For a single night beside you
