Reunion Ball
Stephen Duffy
The orchestra's yawning they're sleepy I know
Oh but I don't feel like letting them go
Embossed in the melodies
Block capital memory
Of childish complexities
Reunion ball
Of girls and boys
Who could have done it all
Reunion ball
The heavyweight champion of love and romance
Oh but my partners weren't given a chance
I met you beneath the clock
Goodnight goodbye and thanks a lot
Don't wait for the postman's knock
Reunion ball
Of girls and boys
Who could have done it all
Reunion ball
Rotating cylinders that once poured headlines
Still the technology's breadlines
To prove our time
Is monstrous in its stillness
And I loved you before before
Before I found out we were poor
And saving for our Sunday best
We'll wear to...
