See I’ve walked in silent thought
Past the cinema and bowling halls
Watched the hours, die in the night
No need to talk, as you took flight.
And how can you stay friends
When they’ve seen you naked?
Your smile was wide
But your eyes were vacant
No secrets here – we’re all the same
Written out of your play for three
Isn’t romance so dreadfully old?
That a person could stay for life
But modern ways, cuts like a knife
And how can you stay friends
When they’ve seen you naked?
Your smile was wide
But your eyes were vacant
No secrets here – we’re all the same
Now they’ll ask you to stay friends
You’ll say yes, cos it’s hard to forget
You know folk don’t deal with regret
Took a chance then, and lost your bet.
And how can you stay friends
When they’ve seen you naked?
Your smile was wide
But your eyes were vacant
No secrets here – we’re all the same
