Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Whoa!
It started on a weekend in may
I was looking for attention, needed intervention
Felt somebody looking at me
With a powder white complexion, feeling the connection
[Verse 2]
The way she looked was so ridiculous
Every single step had me waiting for the next
Before I knew it, it was serious
Dragged me out the bar to the back seat of her car
[Verse 3]
When the lights go out
She's all I ever think about
The picture burning in my brain
Kissing in the rain
No, I can't forget my English love affair
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
The movie playing in my head of a king size bed means I can't forget
My English love affair
My English love affair
[Verse 4]
Next thing we were back at her place
A hideaway in Mayfair, all the great and good there
Drinking all the way to third base
Princes getting naked, falling on their faces
[Verse 5]
The story line was so ridiculous
Every single step had me begging for the next
Before I knew it, it was serious
Dragged me up the stairs and it wasn't ending there
[Verse 6]
When the lights go out, she's all I ever think about
The picture burning in my brain, kissing in the rain
I can't forget, my English love affair
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
The movie playing in my head of a king size bed means I can't forget
My English love affair
[Verse 7]
When I got out I knew that nobody I knew would believe in me
I look back now and know that nobody could ever take the memory
[Verse 8]
When the lights go out (Lights go out)
She's all I ever think about (Think about)
The picture burning in my brain
Kissing in the rain
I can't forget, my English love affair
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
The movie playing in my head
Of a king size bed
Means I can't forget my English love affair
[Verse 9]
Oh oh oh oh
My English love affair (Oh oh oh)
My English love affair (Oh oh oh)
