Chris Rea

Dying flame, you're free again
Who could love, and do that to you
All dressed in black, he won't be coming back
Save your tears, you've got years and years
The pains of seventeen's
Unreal they're only dreams
Save your crying for the day

Fool if you think it's over
'Cos you said goodbye
Fool if you think it's over
Tell you why

New born eyes always cry with pain
First look at the morning sun
Fool if you think it's over
Just begun

Miss teenage dream, such a tragic scene
He knocked your crown, and ran away
First wound of pride, and how you cried and cried
But save your tears, you've got years and years

Fool if you think it's over
'Cos you said goodbye
Fool if you think it's over
Tell you why

(instrumental break)

I'll buy your first good wine
We'll have a real good time
Save your crying for the day

That may not come, but anyone
Who had to pay, would laugh at you and say

Fool if you think it's over
'Cos you said goodbye
Fool if you think it's over
Tell you why

New born eyes always cry with pain
First look at the morning sun
Fool if you think it's over
Just begun

I'll buy your first good wine
Ow, we'll have a real good time
Save your crying for the day

New born eyes always cry with pain
First look at the morning sun
Fool if you think it's over
Just begun
