About

Alex says this song is about the lead singer of a favourite band of his “The Little Flames” who he took a liking to. In the crowd he had the feeling that she was staring straight at him and that he had a chance with her, but in reality she was just staring into the crowd and couldn’t make out anyone...

You Probably Couldn’t See for the Lights But You Were Staring Straight at Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
One look sends it coursin' through the veins, oh, how the feelin' races
Back up to their brains to form expressions on their stupid faces
They don't want to say hello like I want to say hello
Well, the heartbeat's at its peak when you're coming up to speak

[Hook 1]
And oh, I'm so tense, never tenser, could all go a bit Frank Spencer
And I'm talkin' gibberish, tip of the tongue but I can't deliver it
Properly, oh, it's all gettin' on top of me
And if it weren't this dark, you'd see how red my face has gone, yeah

[Verse 2]
Everybody's tryin' to crack the jokes and that to make you smile
Those that claim that they're not showin' off are drownin' in denial
But they're not half as bad as me, say anything and I'll agree
'Cause when it comes to acting up, I'm sure I could write the book

[Hook 2]
And now that you're more than a part in the play
It's slightly easier to think what to say
You had us all standin' on our heads
Doing our best tricks, yeah

[Outro]
Never again, well, never again, no
Will there be another one quite as desirable as you
One look sends it coursin' through the veins, oh, how the feeling races
Back up to their brains to form expressions on their stupid faces
