Someday Out Of The Blue
Here comes the night
Here come the memories
Lost in your arms
Down in the foreign fields
Not so long ago
I remember...every night...in the quiet moments of the day....
Every time I see the two of you together.
Every time she touches your face...every time you hold her hand....
Seems like eternity
Love sweet afternoons
Still capture me
I remember what we had together. It hasn't been so long really...the memories are very clear. Back home in Spain, we had the world...our mad schemes, the danger they inevitably put us in...but we were safe...we had each other's arms to fall into at night.
Even in the jungle after we landed here...on edge in a strange land...we were still safe as long as we were together.
Then she came into the picture...into our scheme....
We weren't safe anymore, were we? Even if there was hope of living through yet another danger with her help.
You saw more in her didn't you? Something she had that I couldn't give you....
When I saw the two of you together.... I thought I'd go crazy. I thought I'd hate you forever. I could never look you in the eyes again...never forgive you....
Someday out of the blue
In a crowded street or a deserted square
I'll turn and I'll see you
As if our love were new
Someday we can start again, someday soon
But I couldn't stay there...couldn't watch you sail away, knowing I'd never see you again....
I know you too well.
I know you can't last with her.
You never could last with anyone...before me.
I still believe
I still put faith in us
We had it all
And watched it slip away
Where are we now?
Not where we want to be
Those hot afternoons
Still follow me
So I'll stay with you...standing silently off to the side, even when you hold her the same way you used to hold me; even though you never notice how much seeing it hurts me....
I'll smile...
indulgently,
or blankly,
I'll force myself if I have to.
Because I know you. Because I know it can't last. Because I know one day she'll be gone...and I'll still be here. Because I know I'll still love you...when you come back to me....
I'll keep forgiving you. I'll keep loving you. I'll always love you...you know that, don't you?
I still believe
I still put faith in us
You'll come back to me, I know it...someday....
Someday out of the blue
In a crowded street or a deserted square
I'll turn and I'll see you
As if our love were new
Someday we can start again, someday soon
