Skimming the Skies

[Verse 1]
On the street where I first laid eyes on you
Where everyone I know had come to pledge like striplings do
It was the night when most youthful hearts take flight
The merest spark could light a blazing fire to brave the night

[Chorus]
But where are you now?
Faux smiles in a drawing room
Where are you now?
Surrendering to the gloom
Where are those eyes?
Skimming the skies all night

[Verse 2]
On the street where I first laid eyes on you
Where everyone I know had come to pledge like striplings do
It was the night when most youthful hearts take flight
The merest spark could light a blazing fire to brave the night

[Chorus]
But where are you now?
Faux smiles in a drawing room
Where are you now?
Surrendering to the gloom
Where are those eyes?
Skimming the skies all night

[Outro]
On the street where I first laid eyes on you
