Carless Memory

only came inside to get shelter from the rain 
you were standing at the bar
blonde hair and a smile a flashin right through the room
duke box playin out a tune

lights down now come alive set the floor alight
drum n base and salsa loud
smoke screen apearing now
and there you are calling out my name
screaming out my name

calling out my name

so easy to disturb the night air with a whisper
let alone the sound system from hell
so hard to find love if its not there
to rely on a carless memory

outside the rain still is pours down
unaware that its time to move on
head in hand i move towrds the doorway
until the touch of her on me bring me back

lights down now come alive set the floor alight
drum n base and salsa loud
smoke screen apearing now
and there you are calling out my name
calling out my name
