Kinsmen Fieldhouse 1982
I saw Mick Jones making eyes at you
I was stone drunk, giddy
laughing with tears in my eyes
this is heaven, I thought.
flying over the Arctic and far away from you
my shameful grin
couldn't they just drop me into
the endless blue.
I almost forgot your face once
she held me in, said it feels better.
I almost forgot your face once
amongst the grime and sex
drink what I do best.
If I lied to myself to make you believe
this moment of bliss is worth a life of suffering.
If I painted a song on your pretty white walls
and a thousand glory nights wild-eyes
were haunting your halls
If I was just a passing thought in your beautiful mind
baby would it make you smile
i almost forgot your face once
she held me in, said it feels better and
I almost forgot your face once
in my tiny room she said I'm married too.
I almost forgot your face.
