Plain Sailing Lyrics
[00:08.13] Meetings arranged, they say, never work out
[00:11.84] I say we've proved them wrong without a doubt
[00:16.33] I can't remember now just what we said
[00:19.99] I never could have guessed what lay ahead
[00:23.59] As I ran towards you up the stairs
[00:27.19] Did a voice in my ear cry Beware?
[00:38.96] Even now I'm surprised you recall
[00:42.56] Such a short time it took me to fall
[00:46.13] Pretending that my heart still lay elsewhere
[00:49.84] When in truth I had long ceased to care
[00:53.44] For what I thought I'd never replace
[00:57.02] 'Til in my heart you left him no space
[01:04.27] You say, you wonder what was it I saw?
[01:12.48] I say Oh, I don't recall anymore'
[01:16.00] My first impressions have been left behind
[01:19.64] Replaced now by feelings and more lost in kind
[01:24.10] Sure that you know but you never can tell
[01:26.87] When I think I understand you so well
[01:30.56] Shakes me that you were a constant surprise
[01:35.07] Or so you appear in my eyes
[01:45.87] Tempting to think now it will all be plain sailing
[01:49.43] Old enough now to know there's no such thing.
[02:01.20]
[00:11.84] I say we've proved them wrong without a doubt
[00:16.33] I can't remember now just what we said
[00:19.99] I never could have guessed what lay ahead
[00:23.59] As I ran towards you up the stairs
[00:27.19] Did a voice in my ear cry Beware?
[00:38.96] Even now I'm surprised you recall
[00:42.56] Such a short time it took me to fall
[00:46.13] Pretending that my heart still lay elsewhere
[00:49.84] When in truth I had long ceased to care
[00:53.44] For what I thought I'd never replace
[00:57.02] 'Til in my heart you left him no space
[01:04.27] You say, you wonder what was it I saw?
[01:12.48] I say Oh, I don't recall anymore'
[01:16.00] My first impressions have been left behind
[01:19.64] Replaced now by feelings and more lost in kind
[01:24.10] Sure that you know but you never can tell
[01:26.87] When I think I understand you so well
[01:30.56] Shakes me that you were a constant surprise
[01:35.07] Or so you appear in my eyes
[01:45.87] Tempting to think now it will all be plain sailing
[01:49.43] Old enough now to know there's no such thing.
