[Verse 1]
Well, darling, now, my fading light
My world was grey, no colours in sight
Just lonely days and empty screens
Then your picture flashed, or so it seemed
My eyes lit up at your whole frame
Yours when you saw my family name

[Chorus]
It was like we danced and held so tight
Remember laughter, late into the night, yeah
Just felt our spirits leave the ground
And we took flight, up and away 
Oh, but it’s so hard to recall that now
On this desolate day
When all our love has finally gone
And you just turned and moved on

[Verse 2]
So, listen now, my distant heart
It took you long before you would start
To live inside these walls
Still don’t know why they call it sin, no
You said you stayed 'cause the touch was good
I didn’t grasp, I misunderstood
And how I loved those shapely forms
Your body kept me safe from storms

[Chorus]
It was like we danced and held so tight
Remember laughter, late into the night, yeah
Just felt our spirits leave the ground
And we took flight, up and away
Oh, but it’s so hard to recall that now
On this desolate day
When all our love has finally gone
And you just turned and moved on

[Bridge]
And yeah, I know I misunderstood
I confused lust for what was good 
And living close
With friends for all eternity
Oh, when you said you stayed for the touch
Oh, but I didn't care that much, yeah, I clearly did not see
I swiped right, I should have swiped left
This is our story, so don’t ignore me

[Chorus]
So like we danced and held so tight
Remember laughter, late into the night, yeah
Just felt our spirits leave the ground
And we took flight, up and away
Oh, but it’s so hard to recall that now
On this desolate day
When all our love has finally gone
And you just turned and moved on

[Outro]
Oh well...
