Skimming the skies

On the street

Where i first laid eyes on you

Where everyone i know

Had come to pledge

Like stiplings do



't was the night

When most youthful hearts take flight

The merest spark could light

A blazing fire

To brave the night



But where are you now?

Faux smiles in a drawing room

Where are you now?

Surrendering to the gloom



Where are those eyes?

Skimming the skies all night



On the street

Where i first laid eyes on you
