Took a holiday
To a country house some miles away
In my suitcase lay
A book on how to keep feelings at bay
It turned up one day
In nothing I would dream and everything I hoped you'd be

I was cynical at first
If you looked at us on paper we would never work
But paper's paper thin
Kamikaze origami threw it in the bin
Cause we're all in the rain
Fighting through the terror of never knowing
If we'll lose or win
But love is not a victory march, not every love is built to last

Heart of gold or heart of glass
It's all the same behind the mask
To be seen just as you are
Is all that love will ever ask
You turned up one day
You're everything I hoped you'd be
You're everything I hoped you'd be
You're everything I hoped you'd be
