[00:19.61] Pete is a young man
[00:20.86] Heart full of rain
[00:22.02] Eyes full of evenings
[00:23.27] Spent in a dream
[00:24.52] Grew up in a city where you master your pain
[00:26.85] Or you end up numb, not feeling
[00:29.52] Becky is a young woman
[00:30.77] Heart full of earth
[00:32.02] Eyes full of mornings
[00:33.17] Spent without sleeping
[00:34.57] Grew up in a city where it’s hard to be heard
[00:36.78] And nothing really has much meaning
[00:39.54] Pete had his heart broke once
[00:41.22] He never fixed it
[00:41.94] Sits there in his chest
[00:43.03] With his arms crossed, screwing
[00:44.24] Becky had her heart broke twice
[00:46.36] She won’t risk it again
[00:47.12] She don’t wanna see her heart get ruined
[00:49.34] And now she’s on her way
[00:50.48] To wash up and take the orders
[00:51.83] For spaghetti
[00:52.59] At Giuseppe’s
[00:53.13] The café on the corner
[00:54.33] She did the night shift too
[00:55.14] A masseuse at the sauna
[00:56.72] She’s putting herself through uni
[00:58.36] It’s hard work
[01:00.20] But will it be this way forever?
[01:02.75] These are lonely days
[01:04.85] What if she could be the one that makes it better?
[01:07.21] He looks away, can’t hold her gaze
[01:10.11] But will it be this way forever?
[01:12.29] These are stressful times
[01:14.47] What if he could be the one that gets her?
[01:17.00] She looks away, she’s petrified
[01:19.59] ‘Now, have you thought about retail?’
[01:20.56] ‘Yes, fine with me’
[01:21.62] ‘Oh and I can see here that you have a degree’
[01:24.02] ‘Yes,’ says Pete, ‘in International Relations.’
[01:25.86] ‘Great
[01:27.20] Let’s see if Primark has space for a placement.’
[01:29.15] Becky clears up from the lunch rush Crushed
[01:31.81] By the blank eyes
[01:33.14] Impolite customers thrusting
[01:34.12] Their damp fives
[01:35.13] Into her palms, she thinks
[01:36.41] 'There ain’t no harm in being civil though, Is there?'
[01:39.29] He folds up his job form
[01:40.52] Gets up from his chair
[01:41.61] The next person sits down with a similar air
[01:44.06] Of dejection
[01:45.06] He walks out, heads in the direction
[01:46.52] Of the café on the corner
[01:47.66] For a coffee and some headroom
[01:48.90] This guy comes in
[01:50.15] The first customer to close the door behind him For that alone she likes him
[01:53.46] He sits at the table by the window
[01:55.04] Reading, half smiling
[01:56.38] His hair’s messy and his eyes are shining
[01:58.58] Can’t think what to say, he just stares blankly
[02:01.12] Picks up his change, fiddles with his spoon
[02:03.58] And as he leaves the café he’s consumed
[02:05.81] With thoughts of her
[02:06.76] Wishing that he’d got up the guts
[02:07.81] To try and talk to her
[02:09.91] Will it be this way forever?
[02:12.01] These are lonely days
[02:14.42] What if she could be the one that makes it better?
[02:16.55] He looks away, can’t hold her gaze
[02:19.63] And will it be this way forever?
[02:22.20] These are stressful times
[02:23.84] What if he could be the one that gets her?
[02:26.26] She looks away, she’s petrified
[02:29.01] It’s Becky’s mate’s birthday
[02:29.99] They’re out for the night
[02:31.06] Now, Becky’s mate is the nightmare type
[02:32.75] She’d flirt with anyone
[02:33.78] Scream at the top of her voice
[02:35.24] But it’s her birthday so Becky
[02:37.39] Don’t really have a choice
[02:38.70] He sees her in the queue
[02:39.87] He doesn’t know what to do
[02:40.85] She’s more beautiful than he remembers
[02:42.81] Then she says
[02:43.74] ‘Alright?’
[02:44.51] And he tries to say something funny
[02:45.87] But stutters
[02:46.68] And now he feels like a muppet and blushes (No, No, No)
[02:48.92] Inside it’s the usual scene
[02:49.86] They’re dancing at the bar, waiting to get served
[02:52.82] Becky’s mate’s screaming about something absurd
[02:55.22] And they’re all fake laughing
[02:56.79] Even though nobody heard a word
[02:58.53] So now he’s hunting around the room
[02:59.70] Staring into every booth
[03:00.62] The back of every head could be hers
[03:02.74] It’s no use
[03:03.45] He stops by the bar, thinking
[03:04.76] 'Man, I’ll never find her'
[03:05.68] And then he realises that he’s standing beside her
[03:08.12] He stands there awkward
[03:10.49] His eyes are as loud as the bass
[03:11.12] And she can recognise something in his face
[03:13.30] She scribbles down her number
[03:14.76] Lingering glance
[03:15.72] And lets herself think
[03:17.11] Maybe this could be her chance
[03:18.34] Will it be this way forever?
[03:21.49] These are lonely days
[03:23.88] What if she could be the one that makes it better?
[03:26.17] He looks away, can’t hold her gaze
[03:28.83] And will it be this way forever?
[03:31.36] These are stressful times
[03:33.51] What if he could be the one that gets her?
[03:35.82] She looks away, she’s petrified
[03:38.34] Will it be this way forever?
[03:40.29] These are lonely days
[03:43.38] What if she could be the one that makes it better?
[03:45.67] He looks away, can’t hold her gaze
[03:48.73] And will it be this way forever?
[03:51.06] These are stressful times
