The night we met out on that bridge
You knew then what I know now
That love put down comes back some how
The comet came, the comet went
And hid its face in the firmament
I looked once and then turned away
When I looked again it was much too late
[Chorus]
A summer wind, a cotton dress
This is how I remember you best
A glance held long and a stolen kiss
This is how I remember you best
The fool I was is the fool I am
I've got a wife, I'm a family man
But when I lay in our bed
I sometimes dream I'm holding you instead
[Chorus]
The kids are fine
They're six and nine
I think you'd probably like my wife
But the kitchen light seems much too bright
For what I find myself thinking tonight
[Chorus]
I was hers and you were his The night we met out on that bridge You knew then what I know now That love put down comes back some how The comet came, the comet went And hid its face in the firmament I looked once and then turned away When I looked again it was much too late [Chorus] A summer wind, a cotton dress This is how I remember you best A glance held long and a stolen kiss This is how I remember you best The fool I was is the fool I am I've got a wife, I'm a family man But when I lay in our bed I sometimes dream I'm holding you instead [Chorus] The kids are fine They're six and nine I think you'd probably like my wife But the kitchen light seems much too bright For what I find myself thinking tonight [Chorus] Explain Request ×
