Lyrics from "Afterwards"

Throw Away –

Thought I saw your reflection
In a window yesterday.
Turned around, but you had gone,
Wondered if you’d run away.
Glimpsed a back that looked like yours
And a head turned to the side.
Talking, laughing with a silhouette
Of a woman by your side.

Eyes meet eyes and
Life meets life.
Just to throw away.
Time and time
It’s passing shows.
Just to throw away.

Thought I saw you in her arms
But I didn’t like to stare.
Eyes were locked, your lips were close,
Fingers playing in her hair.
Smashed up hearts all torn apart,
Say that life has just begun.
Fallen angel, damaged star,
And a hope far fetched, far flung.

Eyes meet eyes and
Life meets life.

Just to throw away.
Time and time
It’s passing shows.
Just to throw away.

Listen to me  

Hey you, just right now,
I’m not going to give you, any consideration.
Hey you, here and now,
It’s me and my life, taking precedent.

‘Cos I’ve given you my love,
And I’ve given you my heart,
‘Cos I’ve spent my time - Finding you out.
‘Cos I’ve given you my faith,
And you’ve consumed all my strength,
‘Cos I’ve lost my joy -
Finding you out.

Hey you, listen to me,
I’m not going to waste, one more minute of my time.
Hey you, fascinating as it is, you’re problems don’t count,
Anymore, anymore.

‘Cos I’ve given you my love…

Hey you, it’s my turn to talk,
I’m not going to say this, more than once.
Hey you, are you listening to me now,
Your last chance has gone, you’re going right now.

‘Cos I’ve given you my love…
