Song Lyrics

Oh the English rain
Seems to follow me again
All the way from Sintra Portugal
It's where I met you just one year ago

Oh sweet memory (riding motorbikes down to the sea)
Didn't feel like reality even when it was happening

And I want everything to stay
The same as yesterday
I want everything to stay the same

I saw you board the Paris train
Your little halo hung sideways
You didn't know I was there to see you go
Standing in your furs and your arms around another fool

Oh tortured memory ( Ceasar Paciotti's standing in the city square)
You smothered everything, just when it started happening

And I want everything to stay ( I wanted to stay)
The same as yesterday
I want everything to stay the same ( I want it to stay)

Love is a deadly potion
Stabs the heart and bleeds emotion
And now nothing is the same again

Oh the politics of love
Oh the politics of love and not feeling loved
I know you, you doubted me all along
Even when I told you that you were the one
And in the street I left a lonely rose
That no one knows, and no one knows, and no one knows
But me

I want everything to stay
The same as yesterday
Want everything to stay the same

Love is a deadly potion
Stabs the heart and bleeds emotion
Love is a chain reaction
We just thought it was attraction

And I never wanted to change ( and now you forced me)
And I never wanted to change ( and how you forced me)

And I know it for a fact
