lyrics
Maybe it's in the slight of your hand,
I can see every gentle gesture,
But my sensitivity's driving me wild and for that I'd call it to question,
And I know I don't feel quite secure,
And I know that of all I want,
Oooh I want,
I want more,
Oh honey did I react too quick?
Did I reach for the door before you called it quits?
And has it all just hit you like a tonne of bricks?
Well I'm not going to promise,
I won't do it again,
And I can just picture you sitting at home,
Trying to find reassurance in a TV show,
Watching a soap opera star wait by the phone,
Some or another classic Bardot,
Who starts a public romance,
That comes crumbling down by the fall of France,
And you realise,
Oooh she didn't stand a chance,
Oh honey did I react too quick?
Did I reach for the door before you called it quits?
And has it all just hit you like a tonne of bricks?
Well I'm not going to promise,
I won't do it again,
Oh and you're trying to convince me of you're lines,
You snatched from that James Dean picture that time,
Well ooh that's just fine,
But you never really were that wild,
No you never really were that good,
At lying,
Oh honey did I react too quick?
Did I reach for the door before you called it quits?
And has it all just hit you like a tonne of bricks?
Well I'm not going to promise,
I won't do it again,
Oh honey did I react too quick?
Did I reach for the door before you called it quits?
And has it all just hit you like a tonne of bricks?
Well I'm not going to promise,
I won't do it again.
