lyrics

Opposite each other at the proverbial crossroads
waiting for the signals to go from stop to go.
Clutches to the floor released at red to green
to start on their collision course of love.

All of the above and more - cliches galore.
Analogies and similes, almost similarities,
shared with such hilarity and carefree loose profanities,
sat in close proximity to insanity.

They’re waiting for the lights in their eyes to switch on.
Waiting for the smiles on their lips to correspond.
Correspond then waiting for the lights to change
into something that you might call love.

Of course, just like everything, nothing is for sure.
Wheels of amour go round and round and can forevermore.
Occasionally you have to say okay that’s enough for today
let’s park the cars and go indoors.

All of the above and less - that’s love I guess.
We all must do our best and put each other to the test
but eventually you have to agree or forever be
on an unfinished, diminished, sad, lonely journey

Still waiting for the lights in their eyes to switch on.
Waiting for the smiles on their lips to correspond.
Correspond then waiting for the lights to change
into something that you might call love.
Something you might call love.
Something you might call love.

Get Physical is my soundtrack to the summer! Slow Cooked and I Like You In Blue are corkers. The vibe is classic indie pop from yore, but with a real nugget of star quality. what's not to like? Gareth Williams
