I Can Laugh About You Now

Colin Vearncombe (Black)


I can laugh about it now
But couldn't then
You made me ache
So I went for a run
In the driving rain
Through your neighborhood streets
And then there you were
A silhouette in the wet night air
Me in my pumps in
The pouring rain in
A kind of despair
Upon finding you there
Couldn't whisper your name
So, I can laugh about it now
By your side
Oh I can laugh about it now
By your side
Oh, sha la la la
We're all in trouble
Is there room in the sky
For all of us angels here
On earth?
And the very next day
Through the shrieks of the crowd
Came your careless self
Your oh-so-couldn't careless self
And you just pass me by
Your friends catch my eyes
"We know you love her
We saw you dancing with her shadow"
And I couldn't disagree
And for the life of me
I could call out your name
And call out your name
And call out your name
Oh, I can laugh about it now
By your side
I can laugh about it now
By your side
Oh, sha la la la
We're all in trouble
Is there room in the sky
For all of us angels here
On earth?
Sha la la la
Oh we're all in trouble
Or is there room in the sky
For all of us angels here
On earth? On earth?
I can laugh about it now
I can laugh about it now
By your side
Oh, sha la la la
Oh we're all in trouble
Or is there room in the sky
For all of us angels here
On earth?
Sha la la la
We're all in trouble
Or is there room in the sky
For all of us angels here
On earth?
Sha la la la
Is there room in the sky
For all of us angels here
On earth? On earth?
