lyrics
Sitting in the sunshine sipping local wine
Some friends had come together to share a little time
and I can still see the dress you wore that day
Parked under a tree, found a shady place
Wine glass in your hand, smile upon your face
I paused as I approached to catch the breath you took away
Never saying no, only saying yes
Living for the moment, having no regrets
and hoping that the day would just go on and on
Momentary silence when I closed my eyes
Made a bigger space in my heart and mind
for you and I wanna know if you'll fill it up
I really really wanna tell you, but I just can't find the words
Maybe I'll call tomorrow. Oh, girl am I hopeless
Whenever I think about you, my feet don't touch the ground
I really really like the feeling of having you 'round
Wound up by the harbour, finished off the wine
Picking out the stars and losing track of time
It's nights like these that make your life worthwhile
Calling for a taxi, sitting on the kerb
Couldn't help my smiling – does this sound absurd?
Electric moonlight helped me fall in love
I really really wanna tell you, but I just can't find the words
Maybe I'll call tomorrow. Oh, girl am I hopeless
Whenever I think about you, my feet don't touch the ground
I really really like the feeling of having you 'round
[ Instrumental ]
I really really wanna tell you, but I just can't find the words
Maybe I'll call tomorrow. Oh, girl am I hopeless
Whenever I think about you, my feet don't touch the ground
I really really like the feeling of having you 'round
