One month ago today
I was happy as a lark
But now I go for walks
To the movies, maybe to the park
I have a seat on the same old bench
To watch the children play, huh
You know tomorrow is their future
But for me just another day
They all gather 'round me, huh
They seem to know my name
We laugh, tell a few jokes
But it still doesn't ease my pain
I know I can't hide from a memory
Though day after day I've tried
I keep sayin' she'll be back
But today again I've lied

Oh, I see her face everywhere I go
On the street and even at the picture show
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her
Oh, I hear her voice as the cold winds blow
In the sweet music on my radio
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her
Why, oh, why
Did she have to leave and go away
I've been used to havin' someone to lean on
And I'm lost, baby, I'm lost

Oh, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)
Oh, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)

Oh, she left her kiss upon my lips
But left that break within my heart
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her
Oh, I see her hand reaching out to me
Only she can set me free
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her
Why, oh, why
Did she have to leave and go away

I've been used to havin' someone to lean on
And I'm lost, baby, I'm lost
Oh, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)

As another day comes to an end
I'm lookin' for a letter or somethin'
Anything that she would send
With all the people I know, hmm
I'm still a lonely man
You know it's funny
I thought I had her in the palm of my hand
(Have you seen her)
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)

Oh doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Have you seen her (have you seen her)
Tell me have you seen her (have you seen her)
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)

Drinking in the morning sun
Blinking in the morning sun
Shaking off the heavy one
Heavy like a loaded gun

What made me behave that way?
Using words I never say
I can only think it must be love
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

Someone tell me how I feel
It's silly wrong but vivid right
Oh, kiss me like the final meal
Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see the light
Yeah, lying with me half awake
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

When my face is chamois-creased
If you think I'll wink, I did
Laugh politely at repeats
Yeah, kiss me when my lips are thin

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see you like
Yeah, lying with me half awake
Stumbling over what to say
Well, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

Throw those curtains wide!
One day like this a year'd see me right
Throw those curtains wide!
One day like this a year'd we'll sing it right

This wasn't supposed to happen,
I was happy by myself.
Accidently, you seduced me,
I'm in love again.

I lie in my bed,
Totally still,
My eyes wide open.
I'm in rapture.
I don't believe this,
I'm in love again!

This wasn't
Supposed to happen,
I've been hit
With your charm.
How could you do this
To me?
I'm in love
Again...

I lie in my bed,
Totally still,
My eyes wide open.
I'm in rapture.
I don't believe this,
I'm in love again...

This wasn't supposed to happen!
This wasn't supposed to happen!

A small story which never happened
I said ouch! This really hurts...
That can't be this has been
Practised for millions of years
Therefore we are
Yes, but I, I'm a boy.
A small story which always happens
I said ouch! This really hurts...
This could well be
But this has
Been practised for millions of years,
Therefore we are
Yes, but, you're a girl!

I lie in my bed,
Totally still,
My eyes wide open.
I'm in rapture.
I don't believe this,
I'm in love
Again...

This wasn't supposed to happen.

I lie in my bed,
Totally still,
My eyes wide open.
I'm in rapture.
(rapture)
You've put a seed inside me,
(oh)
And while you're away,
(see...)
It's growing silently,
(to be a life)
Starts in my stomach.
Embraces my insides,
(in time..)
And about to reach my heart.

This wasn't supposed to happen!
This wasn't supposed to happen!

This really hurts!

If I only had time
Only time

So much to do
If I only had time, if I only had time
Dreams to pursue
If I only had time they'd be mine

Time like the wind
Those are hurrying by and the hours just fly
Where to begin
There are mountains I'd climb, if I'd time

Since I met you I've glored

image: http://static.urx.io/units/web/urx-unit-loader.gif

Life really is too short, lovin' you
So many things we could make true
A whole century isn't enough to satisfy me

So much to do
If I only had time, if I only had time
Dreams to pursue
If I only had time they'd be mine

Mmm, if I only had time
Only time, mmm
