First Encounters of a simpler kind
Damn it was easy, I was so surprised
One nostalgic melancholy moment
Felt it even as it pa**ed me by
The tinny music from the radio,
The first snow in a while
The cup of coffee as the dawn was breaking
The cigarettes inside
I like the way you're slow to smile
I like your eyes, I like you stoned and wild
And if the night-time makes you lightning
Well then I'm thunder in the distant sky
But every morning is a different story
Let me see you in the light
Is this a dream, some other dark confusion
Or someone else's life?
Oh it's alright
Oh it's alright
Load us up on wells and cheap champagne
We're gonna shake this thing awake somehow
We'll make a scene, be seasick strangers
Turning in the low-light of¬¬ a lonesome crowd
I've been brooding for a long time baby
But I want to to shut it out
I want to hide behind the big delusion
Don't let me down!
