The nerve
I was seventeen
I saw you at the bus stop and I knew
That you were the one
I tried so hard to say something
Instead I just turned away
Waiting for the day
When I'd have the nerve
To speak to you
I was twenty-one
I saw you with a man across the street
Wanted to be him
To walk with you and talk to you
But no, I just turned away
Waiting for the day
When I'd have the nerve
To speak to you
I never wanted to be
Anywhere but here
I never wanted to see
Anyone but you
That was years ago
I'm sat here on the sofa in my house
And it's been so long
Since we first got together
Yes, it's true
I didn't turn away
I thought of what to say
I finally got the nerve
To speak to you
I finally got the nerve
To speak to you
Put the kettle on, love!
I saw you at the bus stop and I knew
That you were the one
I tried so hard to say something
Instead I just turned away
Waiting for the day
When I'd have the nerve
To speak to you
I was twenty-one
I saw you with a man across the street
Wanted to be him
To walk with you and talk to you
But no, I just turned away
Waiting for the day
When I'd have the nerve
To speak to you
I never wanted to be
Anywhere but here
I never wanted to see
Anyone but you
That was years ago
I'm sat here on the sofa in my house
And it's been so long
Since we first got together
Yes, it's true
I didn't turn away
I thought of what to say
I finally got the nerve
To speak to you
I finally got the nerve
To speak to you
Put the kettle on, love!
