Never Again - Pete Shelley

When I saw you, you were not so happy

So I hung around a while

You said to me give me three good reasons

Why I should even raise a smile

Somebody told me they thought I was a sailor

They thought having fun was the answer

But you see next time could be for ever

The things I say may very well sound different

Depending on your point of view

Some kind of lovers give you creature comforts

Do anything you want them to

Somebody told me they thought I was much older

They thought having fun was the answer

But you see next time should be for ever

Never again I hear somebody saying

Will you break this heart of mine

But I can’t wait not even for a moment

I’m drifting off the edge of time

You showed me things that should remain a mystery

Just like they were intended to

If I try hard and do some rearranging

I could find a place for you

You say you know but you might be mistaken

Taken for a ride again

Alone at last but this is not the first time

I hope it won’t turn out the same

Somebody told me they never ever worried

They thought having fun was the answer

But you see next time will last for ever

Never again I hear somebody saying

Will you break this heart of mine

But I can’t wait not even for a moment

I’m slipping off the edge of time

You showed me things that should remain a mystery

Just like they were intended to

If I try hard and do some rearranging

I could find a place for you

You told me once but say it again

It’s nice to hear you say such sweet things

Hold me close closer than the last time

It’s nice to feel you do such sweet things

Never again I hear somebody saying

Will you break this heart of mine

But I can’t wait not even for a moment

I’m dripping off the edges of time

You showed me things that should remain a mystery

Just like they were intended to

If I try hard and do some rearranging

I could find a place for you
