The gentlest thought still brings a tear to my eye,    when summer reminds me of those halcyon days   Our pseudonyms scrawled all down the jubilee line    whilst down at the park our twisted bicycles lay   We were young and in love, holding hands in the sun,    in hindsight we were true romantics   Not a second of our life seemed wasted,    French kissing ‘till the light had faded      Tell me, tell me something I aint ever heard before   Tell me something that’ll make you love me more   Tell me something that’ll mean the world to me   Tell me, tell me      And now the swings are wrapped around    the poles where they once hung   And the sound of the ice cream van is sinister   And the tenement blocks where we both grew up   How quickly they became your prison cell   Even now you seem young to be pushing that pram   To be bringing up kids both with different dads   For some of us there’s no escaping   I still hear you saying      Tell me, tell me something I aint ever heard before   Tell me something that’ll make you love me more   Tell me something that’ll mean the world to me   Tell me, tell me      ‘cos nothing feels like it feels the first time   Sacred moments like uncut diamonds   I still think of you there waiting   And still hear you saying      Tell me, tell me something I aint ever heard before   Tell me something that’ll make you love me more   Tell me something that’ll mean the world to me   Tell me, tell me      Tell me, tell me something I aint ever heard before   Tell me something that’ll make you love me more   Tell me something that’ll mean the world to me   Tell me, tell me
