John Squire - Sophia lyrics

Sophia, Sophia say you'll be mine Don't leave me hanging out to dry I wait at the factory gates seven days a week Sophia, Sophia, so fine You know outside every strong man There's a weak one trying to get in Every single good deed's Just a stone's throw from sin You sank me with one shot Just below the waterline Sophia, Sophia, so fine I painted you with street signs To find a way to your heart But you got another lover And it's tearing me apart I thrive on complications I'm a good old-fashioned masochist I never got the message So many signs I missed I was in no condition to say 'Let's wait and see' There's nothing in life so tradgic As a missed opportunity So despite the miles And because the night Intercity 125 Sophia, Sophia, so fine Well I don't know how we got here Dumb luck or a twist of fate But you're walking down the hillside And you're opening the gate Sophia, Sophia, seven days a week Have I told you lately Yeah I'm almost complete? Sophia, Sophia, it cuts me up both ways Try to see it from every point of view Everything worth fighting for Comes at such a cost Sophia, Sophia, I'll never Forget all the good things I lost Sophia, Sophia, seven acre smile Tiffany blue looking at you and your child Late summer sunshine Splashed across the floor Now I know it's all in the details Now I know what this is for Three generations walk together Once more
