English Love Affair

1. It started on a weekend in May
I was looking for attention
Needed intervention.

Felt somebody looking at me
With a powder white complexion
Feeling the connection.

The way she looked was so ridiculous
Every single step
Had me waitin for
The next.

Before I knew it, it was serious
Dragged me out the bar
To the backseat of a car.

[Chorus:]
When the lights go out
She's all I ever think about
The picture burning in my brain
Kissin in the rain
I can't forget my English love affair
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
The movie playin in my head
Of her king size bed
Means I can't forget my
English love affair
My English love affair.

2. Next thing we were back at
Her place
A hideaway in Mayfair all
The great and good there
Drinking all the way to third
Base.

Princess getting naked
Falling on their faces.

The story line was so ridiculous
Every single step had me beggin'
For the next.

Before I knew it, it was serious
Dragged me up the stairs and it
Wasn't ending there.

[Chorus:]
When the lights go out
She's all I ever think about
The picture burning in my brain
Kissin in the rain
I can't forget my
English love affair
Today, I'm seven thousand miles
Away
The movie playin in my head
Of her king size bed
Means I can't forget my English
Love affair.

* When I got out I knew that
Nobody I knew would be
Believing me
I look back now and know that
Nobody could ever take the
Memory.

[Chorus:]
When the lights go out, she's
All I ever think about
The picture burning in my brain
Kissin in the rain
I can't forget my
English love affair
Today, I'm seven thousand
Miles away
The movie playin in my head
Of her king size bed
Means I can't forget my
English love affair.

My English love affair. (x2)
