Fascinating Aida - I Watched Two People Şarkı Sözleri
I wore my satin dress tonight, my silver high-heeled shoes
I dabbed my skin with sweet perfume, the one you helped me choose
I did my hair the way you like, up in a simple twist
You touched my face to take away an eyelash that I missed
You said Lets not go out tonight, lets not go into town
And as you kissed my neck, I said We cant let people down
And now the evenings over, I dont know what to do
I watched two people fall in love, and one of them...
Was you
And now were lying only inches apart
Though it might be twenty miles
And its a quiet kind of dying inside
As I see your radiant smiles
The air is loaded with things we cannot say
I try to hold you, but you sigh and turn away
I tell myself were not estranged
But in one evening, everythings changed
You held my hand when we walked in, each detail I recall
I moved around the party making small-talk, very small
You were soon in conversation with a girl I didn't know
She reminded me of someone else: me, ten years ago
I found you still there two hours later, long since time to leave
I wonder, did you know I saw her hand upon your sleeve?
Then you drove home or was it me? The journey is a blur
I watched tow people fall in love, and one of them...
Was her
And now were lying only inches apart
Though it might be twenty miles
And its a quiet kind of dying inside
As I see your radiant smiles
The air is loaded with things we cannot say
I try to hold you, but you sigh and turn away
I tell myself were not estranged
But in one evening, everythings changed
And now two people lie beside each other in the dark
One sleeps, the other cannot, and dissects each chance remark
The satin dress upon its hanger shimmers like a ghost
To illustrate the transience of things wed love the most
The silver shoes are in their box, not kicked aside in haste
And as you turn the lights off, your kiss is strangely chaste
Now our familiar sanctuary feels terrible and new
I watched two people fall in love, and one of them was you
