The way that sunlight flits across your skirt
makes me feel I'm from another world
To touch your face in the morning light
I hope you're always going to be around
The times I struggle to understand why
The ancient proverbs like "Who am I?"
"Why am I here" and "What have I done?"
I see the answer's place my trust in you
Trust in you love, be with me then
That's when I want you, that's when I need you the most
I want us to be like Peter Pan
But dreams it seems are weightless as sand
And man's supposedly is made of sand
It seems that man cannot survive at all
Let's disappear love, let's fly away
Into the demi-monde, into the twilight zone
The times inside I spent screaming at you
Release me please from this mortal jail
One shrug or smile can determine my fate
I'm lost for days and have myself to blame
Something I'm giving, is yours for the taking
Something like sunlight, Love is a spotlight
Love is all sorrow, still I'll meet you tomorrow
And look forward to see you, now I can't live without you

Such logic in a poetic way - pure genius
wonderful song, love the mood changes pau; weller must have used at least 4 guitars on this
This is a song about sex as far as I'm concerned. He saying i want it, i know i should be thinking of higher things but sod it, I'll do that tomorrow, tonight I'll try and get into her knickers.
Seems like a normal love song to me. Pretty desperate one though.
