We came so close Like we brushed our hands in the dark As we flew by each other And through the years Even though you felt so far I don't think I recovered I tried to ignore you Now I'm left searching for you I'm holding onto the light of day Cause without you, the night's growing colder I'm hoping one day I'll see your face If I look for you over my shoulder I'm tired of thinking about the way If I tried, maybe I might've known you I'm hoping one day I'll see your face If I look for you over my shoulder Now and then when I Make my way back home I swear I see you But city streets always Make you feel alone They hide the things they need to I tried to ignore you Now I'm left searching for you I tried to ignore you Now I'm left searching for you I'm holding onto the light of day Cause without you, the night's growing colder I'm hoping one day I'll see your face If I look for you over my shoulder I'm tired of thinking about the way If I tried, maybe I might've known you I'm hoping one day I'll see your face If I look for you over my shoulder You were always hard to ignore But someone always came round before

There's a rainbow 'round my shoulder And a sky of blue above How the sun shines bright The world's all right 'Cause I'm in love There's a rainbow 'round my shoulder And it fits me like a glove Let it blow, let it storm I'll be warm 'Cause I'm in love Hallelujah, how the folks will stare When they see the Solitaire That my little sugar baby is gonna wear There's a rainbow 'round my shoulder And a sky of blue above And I'm shoutin' so The world will know That I'm in love Hallelujah, how the folks are gonna stare When they see that diamond Solitaire That my own true baby's gonna wear There's a rainbow 'round my shoulder And a sky of blue above And I'm shoutin' so So the world will know I'm in love, I'm in love There's a rainbow 'round my shoulder And I'm in love

Looking back over my shoulder I can see that look in your eye I never dreamed it could be over I never wanted to say goodbye Looking back over my shoulder With an aching deep in my heart I wish we were starting over Oh instead of drifting so far apart So far apart Looking back over my shoulder I can see that look in your eye Turning my heart over and over I never wanted to say goodbye To say goodbye Looking back over my shoulder With an aching deep in my heart Cutting me up, deeper and deeper Fills me with a sadness that I can't hide With an aching deep in my heart Cutting me up, deeper and deeper Fills me with a sadness that I can't hide That I can't hide

Looking back over my shoulder I can see that look in your eye I never dreamed it could be over I never wanted to say goodbye Looking back over my shoulder With an aching deep in my heart I wish we were starting over Oh instead of drifting so far apart Everybody told me you were leaving Funny I should be the last to know Baby please tell me that I'm dreaming Cos I just never want to let you go Looking back over my shoulder I can see that look in your eye Turning my heart over and over I never wanted to say googbye I don't mind everybody laughing But it's enough to make a grown man cry I can feel you slipping through my fingers And I don't even know the reason why Every day it's a losing battle Just to smile and hold my head up high Could it be we belong together Baby won't you give me one more try One more try Looking back over my shoulder I can see that look in your eye I never dreamed it could be over I never wanted to say googbye Looking back over my shoulder There's an aching feeling inside Cutting me up, deeper and deeper Fills me with a sadness that I can't hide Uuuhh Oh you baby Looking back over my shoulder I can see that look in your eye I never dreamed it could be over I never wanted to say googbye Looking back over my shoulder I can see I can see that look in your eye I never dreamed I never dreamed it could be over I never wanted I never wanted to say goodbye Looking back over my shoulder I can see that look in your eye I never dreamed it could be over I never wanted to say goodbye Uhh I'm looking back
