Lyrics
We'll do and start from every record with me
This one is from the latest record and it's called Tuesday Afternoon
The time was 20 past, our meeting was delayed
I watched you move over Edinburgh concrete, I hid behind the wall
And as you approached I tried to guess at what you were thinking
Then memory, took me away two miles from here and three decades ago
Then all at once, so soon, you were inside the room
And that was Tuesday afternoon
This love is old and new
This love is happening now
This love is mine and I give it you gladly
If you don't want it, say and I'll take it away
And put it back in the place where I found it
And every now and then I'll take it out again
Turn it in my hands and look upon its madness
Then lead it from the room and show it to the moon
And remember Tuesday afternoon
I remember Tuesday afternoon (I remember Tuesday afternoon)
I recall the sweet scent of your skin (I recall the sweet scent of your skin)
And if I try hard I begin almost to draw a trace of your glistening lips upon my face
I never regret you but sometimes I forget you
Like when I'm tired and I make bad decisions but you come back to me
Your lovely melody sings to my soul and lifts me to heaven
And as I'm rising up a yellow buttercup illuminates your chin
And causes gentle laughter
Yours is the song I croon
I know I'll see you soon
I love you, Tuesday afternoon
I love you, Tuesday afternoon
Thank you
