THE PARIS MATCH - Paul Weller



Empty hours spent combing the streets

In day-time showers they've become my beat;

As I walk from Cafe to bar

I wish I knew where you are;

Because you've clouded my mind

And now I'm all out of time



Empty skies say try to forget

Better advice is to have no regrets;

As I tread the boulevard floor

Will I see you once more?

Because you've clouded my mind

'Til then I'm biding my time.



I'm only sad in a natural way

And I enjoy sometimes feeling this way;

The gift you gave is desire

The match that started my fire.



Empty nights with nothing to do

I sit and think, every thought is for you;

I get so restless and bored

So I go out once more;

I hate to feel so confined

I feel like I'm wasting my time
