[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?
