I see you walking down the street
Just walking down the street
You stop and stare into the window of a store
I'm thinking will I or won't I?
Do I or don't I?
Do I leave before you see me
Or I do cross to say hello
Oh my God it's been a while
Small talk yak, yak, yak
Very quirky and polite
And I'm thinking nevermind
What happened was in the past
What has been, it didn't last
It's irreversibly gone
And all of the sudden as if you know
As if you feel it
As if it shows
You're breaking through the fortress of my face
Your gaze and mine fit
Too late now to split
I stand rooted to the moment and the place
Then we walk into a bar
Yes it's true, it's been a while
More small talk yak, yak, yak
We act like nothing ever was
And then you tell me about that big whale
Big whale
Big whale
Big whale
That majestic big whale
Washed upon the cold and stormy beaches
In the North, three
Oooooh, Oooooh, Oooooh
I'm thinking only 'bout that winter night
Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh
When you lay sleeping in my arms
Oooooh, oooh, ooooh
But full of joy you walked half naked into the snow
Ooooooh, oooooh, ooooh
Defenceless in the cold of night
And how every day still, every longest day still
I can't stand living without you
You say the climate's gone astray
And no matter what they say
Look how that big whale completely lost it's way
The planet suffers man's impact
Things will go horribly wrong
If we don't act
There's gonna be a very, very high price to pay
I observe the movement of your lips
Your eyes, your finger tips
I'm oblivious to the meaning of your words
I just sit there frozen
You talk and talk and talk and talk
And talk and talk
Baby I love the way you talk, three
Oooooh, Oooooh, Oooooh
I'm thinking only 'bout that winter night
Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh
When you lay sleeping in my arms
Oooooh, oooh, ooooh
But full of joy you walked half naked into the snow
Ooooooh, oooooh, ooooh
Defenceless in the cold of night
And how every day still, every longest day still
I can't stand living without you
