I was a cynic long before we met |
[00:09.50] |
I think that's how it tends to be |
[00:13.35] |
You go around the block, that's where you get |
[00:18.26] |
That's how it was with you and me |
[00:22.25] |
But there isn't a single day that passes by |
[00:26.53] |
When I don't ask if I could've made the grade |
[00:31.64] |
When I don't see your name and wonder why |
[00:37.06] |
I didn't go to Adelaide |
[00:41.80] |
Perhaps when I was a younger man, |
[00:45.87] |
Back when I believed in fate |
[00:50.02] |
I would not have turned and ran, |
[00:54.93] |
I would have known I'd found my mate |
[00:58.92] |
I would've known this was something of a different kind |
[01:03.26] |
I would've known I had it made |
[01:07.70] |
I would've known when to change my mind |
[01:12.56] |
And I would've gone to Adelaide |
[01:33.59] |
Woodford in the summer is a hot place |
[01:37.79] |
In the coming weeks it got hotter still |
[01:42.52] |
Each day I look up and I see your face |
[01:46.53] |
Staring at me just above my windowsill |
[01:51.10] |
I said I – I was already taken |
[01:55.54] |
But maybe I was just afraid |
[02:00.70] |
To leave a woman's heart forsaken |
[02:06.18] |
If I went to Adelaide |
[02:10.92] |
When it's daytime where I sit |
[02:15.62] |
For you it's usually night |
[02:19.05] |
But every other day I still get hit |
[02:23.10] |
By what should be a familiar sight |
[02:28.00] |
Each time I see your name appear on my screen |
[02:32.18] |
I feel like I've been flayed |
[02:36.53] |
If we chat I just try not to mention |
[02:42.13] |
How much I long for Adelaide |
[03:03.59] |
They say time heals everyone |
[03:07.19] |
This is something I have come to disbelieve |
[03:12.22] |
Because each time a new day is done |
[03:16.04] |
I think of all the things I never will achieve |
[03:21.05] |
Such as being the father of your child |
[03:25.40] |
Hiking with him in a forest glade |
[03:29.95] |
Such as having my heart beguiled |
[03:35.03] |
By the hottest Red in Adelaide |
[03:40.50] |
Sometimes I wish I were a Buddhist |
[03:44.15] |
Not just a worshipper of dirt |
[03:49.20] |
Then I could make up for all I missed |
[03:53.26] |
And live a life in someone else's shirt |
[03:57.99] |
I'd live in the southern hemisphere |
[04:02.01] |
I would be the guy who stayed |
[04:07.00] |
Each and every day I'd hold you near |
[04:11.64] |
In our little home in Adelaide |
