It was familiar to me

The smoke too thick to breathe

the tiled floors glistened

I slowly spilled my drink

and when you started to sing

you spoke with broken speech

that i could not understand

and then you grabbed me tightly



I won't let go, I won't let go

even if you say so, oh no

I've tried and tried with no results

I won't let go, I won't let go



He then played every song from 1993

the crowd applauded as he curtsied bashfully

your eyelashes tickle my neck

with every nervous blink

and it was perfect

until the telephone started



ringing ringing ringing ringing on
