Lyrics
You jumped out of an alley
With surprise in your black widow's eyes
I was prepared to be unprepared
Been preparing for lights
I fell right in love with you
Into a thousand parts I blew
I fell right in love with you
I was caught in a corner
He recoiled from a broken romance
Taking breath after once undead
I had a firm grip on my pants
I fell right in love with you
Through a hundred hearts you flew
I fell right in love with you
Strange that when infatuation calls
We think that we've got real love in our life
It pumps like the pressure in a station hall
As the express train thunders on by
I fell right in love with you
As the blood came blowing through
I fell right in love with you
Across the room
I saw your eyes
Like window looking back at me
You held a gun
As children cried
You touched some wires
They shattered me
I was blown into a blue
There'd been nothing I could do
I fell right in love with you
I rose up to the station
Smelt your stench by the door
You stood waiting so patient
Just one wait, then no more
I fell right in love with you
There'd been nothing I could do
I fell right in love with you
Across the room
I saw your eyes
Like window looking back at me
You held a gun
As children cried
You touched some wires
They shattered me
Liner Notes
A love song. We sometimes fall in love when we do not want to, and when we do not expect to. Suddenly. Foolishly. This song is about the man holding a child in the Beslan massacre who described the female terrorist who blew herself up, killing the child he held, as "having the most penetrating and beautiful eyes".
