Summer '68

A song about a one-night stand.

Would you like to say something before you leave?
Perhaps you'd care to state exactly how you feel
We say goodbye before we've said hello
I hardly even like you
I shouldn't care at all

We met just six hours ago
The music was too loud
From your bed I came today and lost a bloody year
And I would like to know
How do you feel?
How do you feel?

Not a single word was said
The night still hid our fears
Occasionally you showed a smile
But what was the need

I felt the cold far too soon
In a room of 95
My friends are lying in the sun
I wish that I was there

Tomorrow brings another town
Another girl like you
Have you time before you leave to greet another man?

Just you let me know
How do you feel?
How do you feel?

Goodbye to you
Charlotte Pringle's due
I've had enough for one day

And I would like to know
How do you feel?
How do you feel?

Not a single word was said
The night still hid our fears
Occasionally you showed a smile
But what was the need

I felt the cold far too soon
In a room of 95
My friends are lying in the sun
I wish that I was there

Tomorrow brings another town
Another girl like you
Have you time before you leave to greet another man?
Just you let me know
How do you feel?
How do you feel?

Goodbye to you
Charlotte Pringle's due
I've had enough for one day
