Ted's Waltz Lyrics

Beth Orton

If we should meet again on some darkened street
Pack in it all and heed to the call
Beat a drum to decide on a sketch or design
Can you see to the light of bare winter night
And wipe out the sun form your eyes that vicious sky
Wipe out the sun from your eyes cos some sleep to lie
See the way you are fell the way you move
So sweet, so deep the sum of it all
So deep so sweet I see you again

Once you fell something real let me know let it show
I could be your your honey and let it go there you go
And if you should need me through someone else's eyes
And if into me you see more than disguise
I come down to your knees and if ears could speak
I like to think what they'd say to inspire
Your sweetest desire and since I first met you I found the love I lost
It's just like you looks just like you
You move so sweet so deep the sum of it all
So deep so sweet I see you again

If we should meet again in some darkened room
I hope to my soul it could be soon
Beat a path to my side a sketch for design
Can you see through the light to bare winter night
And wipe out the sun form your eye the vicious sky
Wipe out the sun form your eyes some sleep to lie
See the way you are feel the way you move so deep
So cool you burn through it all it's the shape of your hand
A tone I understand and since I first met you I found the love I lost
Look just like you looks just like you
You move see you again see you again
