Faded Light

Sitting on the half full train
Take a long slow look around
At all the jaded faces
Leaving London underground

But shining in the corner
There's an energy burning bright
The tender look of lovers
In the fast approaching night

I remember that heady feeling
That so exquisite high
The look of love you gave me
As I slowly stroked your thigh

But nothing lasts forever
Even though it felt so right
Just the aching realisation
That I'm living in faded light
