Lyrics – You, You, You
{ words & music by Simon Spire }
*
Everywhere I look I see a memory of us
Everywhere I go I hear a laugh
It makes me smile to think it could be you
Then I realize I’m losing any clue I ever had over you
Every time I’m out I hope I’ll come across you
At the perfect time
And then I’d tell you how I’ve thought about you every day
And every word I heard you say
Replaying in my mind hoping I’d find
*
You, you, you, your smile is all I see
A distant memory of
You, you, you, I’m laughing with you too
While people wonder why
I never knew I’d need you quite like this
I wonder, will I ever have the chance to tell you
Face to face
Now it seems we’re living worlds apart
*
Every time I see your photo I’m transported to a fantasy
Which makes me think have I created my own Cinderella?
Escaping life – I’m tragic
Well I pray that all my hope is not betrayed
*
You, you, you, your smile is all I see
A distant memory of
You, you, you, I’m laughing with you too
While people wonder why
I never knew I’d need you quite like this
I wonder, will I ever have the chance to tell you
Face to face
Now it seems we’re living worlds apart
*
I’m waiting for a fantasy, avoiding my reality
I’m staring at the mirror asking
What it is I’ve tried escaping
All this time obsessing something new
Well I’ve tried to work out what I have to do
But every time it keeps on coming back to you
*
