Coming back from Paris on the train 
I really didn't care if the journey took all day 
Try to turn the pages of my magazine 
Whilst trying to keep a hold of your hand annd 
Ordering a coffee that I wouldn't ever drink 
Just to keep you and Paris on my mind 
Just to keep you and Paris on my mind 
I didn't know it would be the last time 
The last time I saw you 

At Waterloo we went our separate ways 
When I got in my cab 
I didn't turn and wave 
I didn't go to work 
Just went to bed 
Trying to keep you and Paris on my mind 
Trying to keep you and Paris on my mind 
I didn't know it would be the last time 
The last time I saw you 

I phoned your office this afternoon 
They said they hadn't heard anything from you 
It's been seven days without a word 
I have to keep you and Paris on my mind 
I have to keep you and Paris on my mind 
I didn't know it would be the last time 
The last time I saw you 

Going back to Paris on the train 
Raining and without you it's not the same 
I have to do this journey one more time 
Just to keep you and Paris on my mind 
Just to keep you and Paris on my mind 
I didn't know it would be the last time 
The last time 
I saw you 

The last time 
I saw you 

The last time 
I saw you 

The last time 
I saw you

I know what you came for and I know when you'll leave 
You came for my heart and it's lost to me 
For I won't stop you 
I will open my door 
My heart is here waiting 
I don't need it no more 

I know why you're leaving and I'll just let it be 
I am left with nothing and now you're lost to me 
For I can't stop you 
I will open my door 
My heart is here waiting 
I don't need it no more 

I know why you're waiting 
Give me time to breathe 
Before you take my heart now and just get up and leave 
For I won't stop you 
I will open my door 
My heart is here waiting 
I don't need it no more 

For love makes a fool of me 
For love makes a pawn of us 
You know it's worthless as worthless can be 

For love makes a fool of me 
For love makes a pawn of us 
You know it's worthless as worthless can be

I've never had a filling and I've got blue eyes 
I've got every kind of lipstick you can buy 
I've got 3 cupboards for my shoes 
And a mirror that always tells the truth 

I've got clothes in case it's hot 
Clothes for when it's cold 
But still I don't know what to wear 
What to wear tonight 

I've got the concentration of a small child 
Patience - well, not all the time 
A wounded look and a silly smile 
That always gets me what I want 

I've got a garden, but it has no grass 
It's got plastic chairs and the tables glass 
My cat at home thinks it's a dog 
And who am I to judge if that's odd? 

I've got a lot of cards on my shelf 
Everyone of them written to myself 
I've got a million pounds in the bank 
(Don't be silly you haven't been to a bank in your life) 

There's a woman next door who robbed a bank 
A man upstairs who likes to drink 
And sing to us at 3 in the morning 

I've got 5 best friends, 2 parents and a brother 
And a man at home who likes to think 
That every song's written for him 
So this one's for you 
						

D. Armstrong, R. Armstrong 

The young gentleman came riding past 
On a snow-blue winter's day 
He asked to drink by our fire and 
I was pleased to let him stay 
He drank there quietly for a while 
And then he turned and said to me 

Your eyes are green 
Like summer grass 
Your lips are red 
Like a fresh-cut rose 
Your hair is soft 
Like an Irish stream 
And your voice is filled with sweet beauty 

And the last words 
I heard him say were 
I shall return for you 
My love on Christmas Day 

And the night will come 
But I won't sleep 
As I watch the stars that lead him 
I cannot place where he is 
But still my heart goes with him 
I'm saving all my Sunday clothes for the day 
That I'll be leaving 

Father knows 
My sister knows 
And my friends 
They're happy for me 
And the priest he says 
You should thank God 
For the blessing of such beauty 

And the last words 
I heard him say were 
I shall return for you 
My love on Christmas Day 

I shall return for you 
My love on Christmas Day 

On Christmas Day 
I shall return for you my love 
And the last words 
I heard him say were 
Were the last words 
I ever heard him say 
I shall return for you 
My love on Christmas Day 

I said I will return on Christmas Day 
And yes, I shall return on Christmas day 
I shall return, for you, on Christmas Day 
My love 
I will return on Christmas Day 
I shall return, my love, on Christmas Day

We slept in this room together 
But now you're gone 
It's so quiet 
I'll turn the TV on 
We lived in this room together 
We painted the walls 
Now time doesn't stand still, it crawls 

And I'm afraid to sleep 
'Cos if I do 
I'll dream of you 
And dreams are always deep 
On the pillow where I'll weep 

I never realized how much 
I was in love with you 
Till you started 
Sleeping with someone new 
Last night I dreamed again 
And you were there 
You kissed my face 
You touched my hair 

And I'm afraid to sleep 
'Cos if I do 
I'll dream of you 
And dreams are always deep 
On the pillow where I'll weep 

Lyin' alone in the darkness 
With a memory in my head 
There's a big hole where my heart is 
And a lonely feeling rolling 'round my bed 

And I'm afraid to sleep 
'Cos if I do 
I'll dream of you 
And dreams are always deep 
On the pillow where I'll weep 
On the pillow where I'll weep 

And I'm afraid to sleep 
'Cos if I do 
I'll dream of you 
And dreams are always deep 
On the pillow where I'll weep 
On the pillow where I'll weep 

I'm afraid to sleep
