You've been aching for a long time I've been hiding, it's the breeze Romantic, coward, makes me freeze And the man who comes around And the girl that turns you down I've been hiding, it's the breeze Romantic, coward, makes me freeze And the man who comes around And the girl that turns you down I've been hiding, it's the breeze Romantic, coward, makes me freeze And the man who comes around And the girl that turns you down Just me and a souvenir Just me and a souvenir Just me and a souvenir In love In love I've been hiding, it's the breeze Romantic, coward, makes me freeze And the man who comes around And the girl that turns you down I've been hiding, it's the breeze Romantic, coward, makes me freeze And the man who comes around And the girl that turns you down I've been hiding, it's the breeze Romantic, coward, makes me freeze And the man who comes around And the girl that turns you down
