Lyrics

YOU WERE SHINING SO BRIGHTLY THAT A MOTH TO THE FLAME
ONE SUMMER?S EVENING TO YOUR WINDOW I CAME
AND JUST LIKE A FLYER FLYING INTO THE SUN
I NEVER REALISED TILL THE DAMAGE WAS DONE
TILL THE DAMAGE WAS DONE
TILL THE DAMAGE WAS DONE
NO I NEVER SAW IT COMING TILL I KNEW THAT THE DAMAGE WAS DONE

YOUR SMILE SO INVITING I FOLLOWED YOU IN
INTOXICATED BY THE SMELL OF YOUR SKIN
AND JUST LIKE IN A NOVEL JACKIE COLLINS WOULD WRITE
TEN WEEKS OF LOVING IN A SINGLE NIGHT
IN JUST ONE SINGLE NIGHT
IN JUST ONE SINGLE NIGHT
NO I NEVER KNEW THE DAMAGE WE COULD CAUSE IN JUST A SINGLE NIGHT

IT WAS THEN THAT YOU TOLD ME YOU DROPPED THE LAST BOMB
SAID YOU WERE LIVING WITH ANOTHER MAN
YOU TOLD ME YOU LOVED HIM BUT YOU WENT ON TO SAY
PERHAPS WE COULD MEET AGAIN ON THE VERY NEXT DAY
ON THE VERY NEXT DAY
ON THE VERY NEXT DAY
I GOTTA TELL YOU YOU WON?T SEE ME FOR DUST ON THE VERY NEXT DAY

I?M GONNA KEEP AWAY FROM YOU
KEEP AWAY FROM YOU
I?M TRYING TO SURVIVE
I?M GONNA KEEP AWAY FROM YOU
KEEP AWAY FROM YOU GONNA KEEP MY SIMPLE LIFE
