Lightning Seeds

Shepherd's Bush Empire, 1996. The only Lightning Seeds gig where Frank & David joined us on stage to perform Three Lions. Quite a night.

You showed me how to do
Exactly what you do
How I fell in love with you
Oh-woah, it's true
Oh, I love you

You showed me how to say
Exactly what you say
In that very special way
Oh-woah, it's true
You fell for me, too

And when I tried it
I could see you fall
And I decided
It's not a trip, at all

You taught it to me, too
Exactly what you do
And now you love me, too
Oh-woah, it's true
We're in love, we two

La, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, ah-ah-ah
Oh-woah, it's true
We're in love, we two
We two

You showed me how to do
Exactly what you do
How I fell in love with you

You showed me how to say
Exactly what you say
In that very special way

You taught it to me, too
Exactly what you do
And now you love me, too

And now you love me, too
And now you love me, too
And now you love me, too
And now you love me, too

See the rivers filled with rain
I wish it could be blue again
Hazy petrol nights
Crimson sun on traffic lights

A perfect day a perfect night
Tell me all those perfect lies
And lie back in the garden 'till it's light

Streets get full up every night
With people buzzing round the lights
And waving at the taxis driving by
Now tomorrow's here today
And yesterday's today's just fade away
Watch the morning chase the night
Rolling home, it's getting light
Feeling sleepy, full of wine
Fall in bed, just in time
The perfect stare of perfect eyes
That kiss you as they tell you lies
And wonder where you're going, where've you been
In towers high with time to fill
Gardens on your window sill
In between the pavement and the sky
Now tomorrow's here today
And yesterday's today's just fade away
Tell me why all the words will never come out right
Fumbling blind, I've been driving through the danger signs

A perfect day a perfect night
Tell me all those perfect lies
And lie back in the garden 'till it's light

Perfect silence me and you
It's really me, I really do
Remember every moment magnified
Now tomorrow's here today
And yesterday's today's just fade away
Tell me why all the words will never come out right
Fumbling blind, I've been driving through the danger signs
