My Experience

[Verse 1]
It was nothing, it came from nowhere at all
It was a casual remark, not a curtain-call
Late for breakfast – black coffee, brandy-laced...
That look on your face
I'll remember last night;
I'll look out for the signs;
You were caught in the light
Time after time after time after time

[Chorus]
It's been my experience
That when the row gets serious
A certain silence will fall...
But I just can't stop it, why don't you tell me what's wrong?
My heart goes like a rocket, the feeling's so strong
I just can't stop it, why don't you tell me what's wrong?
Don't think about it too long
Don't think about it too long

[Break]

[Verse 2]
I could argue this another way
But on another day I might have to shout
You keep your mouth shut
But it's too late for that now: the word got out
In translation it's lost
In desperation it's mimed;
Is this Paradise lost
Or Paradise time after time after time after time?

[Chorus]
It's been my experience
That when the row gets serious
A certain silence will fall...
But I just can't stop it, why don't you tell me what's wrong?
My heart goes like a rocket, the feeling's so strong
I just can't stop it, why don't you tell me what's wrong?
Don't think about it too long
Don't think about it too long

[Outro]
Don't think about it so long
Don't think about it too long
Don't think about it so long
Don't think about it too long
