Lyrics by Helen Matthews
Feels so real
I still remember how you touched my hair
As if I was a vision, like I might disappear
When you looked at me, your eyes said ‘Don’t go’
We had one perfect Sunday together, that I know
Your lip on my shoulder – my beauty spot
I still feel it now, who’d have thought
Remember we didn’t know how to begin
Remember the tenderness under our skin
But it wasn’t real, never took place
Met you once and loved your face
You’re on my mind and in my dreams,
You’ve been with me ever since
I saw the way you looked at me
It can’t be wrong, how can it be
The way you moved, the words you said
You didn’t want that day to end
It feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
Still feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
What would it be like to meet again
What would it do to me when you say my name
Will I forget that we met just once
Perfect strangers, we’ve never touched or danced
All songs of love and movie scenes
Remind me how it might have been
It feels so real, this love affair
But when I wake, you’re not there
I see your face wherever I go
And I just want to be alone
Forget the world and think of us
Maybe this love will be my last
It feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
Still feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
And one day we will meet and I
I won’t know what to say
And will I, will I see a sign
That you may have felt the same
It feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
Still feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
Time will take you
Away from me
Away, away, away from me
Time will drag you
Away from me
Away, away, away from me
As if I was a vision, like I might disappear
When you looked at me, your eyes said ‘Don’t go’
We had one perfect Sunday together, that I know
Your lip on my shoulder – my beauty spot
I still feel it now, who’d have thought
Remember we didn’t know how to begin
Remember the tenderness under our skin
But it wasn’t real, never took place
Met you once and loved your face
You’re on my mind and in my dreams,
You’ve been with me ever since
I saw the way you looked at me
It can’t be wrong, how can it be
The way you moved, the words you said
You didn’t want that day to end
It feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
Still feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
What would it be like to meet again
What would it do to me when you say my name
Will I forget that we met just once
Perfect strangers, we’ve never touched or danced
All songs of love and movie scenes
Remind me how it might have been
It feels so real, this love affair
But when I wake, you’re not there
I see your face wherever I go
And I just want to be alone
Forget the world and think of us
Maybe this love will be my last
It feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
Still feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
And one day we will meet and I
I won’t know what to say
And will I, will I see a sign
That you may have felt the same
It feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
Still feels so real
After so long
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it like I do?
Time will take you
Away from me
Away, away, away from me
Time will drag you
Away from me
Away, away, away from me
Just say it
Still know your body, read you like a book
know all of your faces, half-smiles and half-truths
our thoughts are the same, we were one, we still are
still the same
Still hear your music, feel your joy and rage
even if you appear controlled, but what changed
what changed ’s that your arms are around someone else
someone else
Just say it
our bond is so strong, but I don’t want to be wrong
if there’s something left unsaid
just say it
so that I know, so I can let hope go
just say it
hope heals but sometimes hope kills
I can’t live on hope and I don’t want to wait
I want it all and now, before it’s too late
just say it
The first time we met, didn’t know what to say
but our bodies knew how to communicate
our faces reflected each other’s light
without words
Now you’ve moved on, every day is the same
I see you with another, what do I blame?
you look so lost – true or false? stay or go?
mine or hers?
Just say it
our bond is so strong, but I don’t want to be wrong
if there’s something left unsaid
just say it
so that I know, so I can let hope go
just say it
hope heals but sometimes hope kills
I can’t live on hope and I don’t want to wait
I want it all and now, before it’s too late
just say it
My body aches to see you hold her
her hands where mine want to be
I look away but your eyes find me
What are they trying to tell me, tell me, tell me?
Just say it
our bond is so strong, but I don’t want to be wrong
if there’s something left unsaid
just say it
so that I know, so I can let hope go
just say it
hope heals but sometimes hope kills
I can’t live on hope and I don’t want to wait
I want it all and now, before it’s too late
just say it
know all of your faces, half-smiles and half-truths
our thoughts are the same, we were one, we still are
still the same
Still hear your music, feel your joy and rage
even if you appear controlled, but what changed
what changed ’s that your arms are around someone else
someone else
Just say it
our bond is so strong, but I don’t want to be wrong
if there’s something left unsaid
just say it
so that I know, so I can let hope go
just say it
hope heals but sometimes hope kills
I can’t live on hope and I don’t want to wait
I want it all and now, before it’s too late
just say it
The first time we met, didn’t know what to say
but our bodies knew how to communicate
our faces reflected each other’s light

Now you’ve moved on, every day is the same

Just say it
our bond is so strong, but I don’t want to be wrong

I can’t live on hope and I don’t want to wait
