Lyrics

Sally took my last words into the night
Leaving my emotions stopped in the half light
Stopped in the half light, Sally's there shining bright
I should've known you never hold hands with a jewel
She'll take you for a fool
As she marches another boy, fast toy
All around the pool that I'm crying into

Thought we were strangers in love
Perfect strangers
Trying to arrange for a love
To invade us

All around the world
People say the word
Falling for the girl
And coming out and saying it first
I could feel the moment slip out of my hands

People tell me Sally's started living in London now
I can feel my fingers touch the dial
Trying to touch that smile
And bring it back somehow
People say she cut a dash standing in the hall
Walking to the door on the arm of an American boy with a new toy
And a big American car

She was a stranger to love
Perfect stranger
Just re arranging for love
To evade her

All around the world
People say the word
Falling for the girl
And coming out and saying it first
I could feel the moment slip out of my hands
Just another nearly made it filed away


All around the world
People say the word
Falling for the girl
And coming out and saying it first
All around the world
People tell me Sally's damn good now
And in another world
I made it come true
