Piano plays into the night   The sun’s gone down now, dark enclosing hood   It's goodbye friend, yes, I know   You would have loved me if only you could      I've so much time now, I walk alone   I visit streets I once called home   And since I left, I won't go back   To exchange broken hearted feelings   For all the love I lack      In this twilight no one cares   The sun’s gone down on sad affairs   In this twilight no one cares    In this twilight no one cares   The sun’s gone down on sad affairs   In this twilight no one cares   She'll write again soon, she swears      So alone and so it goes   A woe-bound express, nothing really shows   Piano plays but if I could choose   To keep apart a heart unbroken even if I lose      I'd hit the sack but the sack hits back   I bite the hand but the hand will slap   I'll write you a letter, the phone won't do   I never seem to come across   How I've wanted to      A little more time is all that's needed   To stop us falling down, advice unheeded   Nursery, basements, big town houses   I'll buy you a coat, myself some trousers   And if you say, "Stephen, when shall we marry?"   On Valentine’s Day in the back of a lorry      On Valentine’s Day in the back of a lorry   On Valentine’s Day, if I get my way   More than an honest day’s pay   On Valentine’s Day, if I get my way
