Capo 3
Intro:
Verse:
It started on a weekend in May
I was looking for attention
needed intervention
Felt somebody looking at me
With a powder white complexion
(stop)
feeling the connection
The way she looked was so ridiculous
Every single step
Had me waiting for the next
Before I knew it, it was serious
Dragged me out the bar
To the backseat of a car
Chorus:
When the lights Go out,
she's all I ever think about
The picture burning in my brain
kissing in the rain
I can't forget my English love affair
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
The movie playing in my head
Of her king size bed
Means I can't forget my
English love affair
My English love affair
Verse:
Next thing we were back at her place
hideaway in Mayfair
all the great and good there
Drinking all the way to third base
Princes getting naked
(stop)
Falling on their faces
The story line was so ridiculous
Every single step had me
begging for the next
Before I knew it, it was serious
Dragged me up the stairs and it
wasn't ending there
Chorus:
When the lights Go out,
she's all I ever think about
The picture burning in my brain
kissing in the rain
I can't forget my English love affair
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
The movie playing in my head
Of her king size bed
Means I can't forget my
English love affair
Bridge:
When I got out I knew that
nobody I knew would be
believing me
I look back now and know that
nobody could ever take the
memory
Chorus:
When the lights Go out,
she's all I ever think about
The picture burning in my brain
kissing in the rain
I can't forget my English love affair
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
The movie playing in my head
Of her king size bed
Means I can't forget my
English love affair
My English love affair
My English love affair
