Exilarating Sadness Lyrics

Exilarating Sadness lyrics

You were sitting in a cafe 

at a table by the juke-box 

Making cups of
coffee last for years 

You never heard the fanfare 

never saw the
sunshine rising  

and the summer slipped in unnoticed  

from beneath
your tears 





The pounding big bass rhythm 

shook the room,
shook your little heart 

all the talk that whistled through your ears 


You were minding your own buisness  

but you were everybody elses


and the summer slipped in unnoticed  

from beneath your tears




All the girls around you  

were captured by your presence


your lucid features admired and revered 

Deep in your eyes I recognise
 

exhilarating sadness 

And the summer slipped in unnoticed  

from
beneath your tears 



Time flew bye 

You moved on 

The shop
street days are long since gone  

All of the laughter  

and all of the
tears 

I still see your likeness through the years
