Its either -
Something in their eyes or something in the drink
But whatever it is they both stop and think
Theres no going back and nothing above
Its lust or loneliness - but never love.
She takes a breath as he takes his keys
First name terms is the extent of it
Theres no getting out as theyre going in
But by tomorrow they both will begin
To regret and renege on a bond they have struck
A small price to pay and casual luck
Some lose nothing - some lose a lot
But whatever we have is all we have got.
He takes her hand and leads to the room
In half light and silence for their clothes to remove
Theres doubt in her mind but hope in her heart
That this last one of many may be the start.
So they wriggle and writhe for an hour or two
But time has no place when two are consumed.
They moan and they gasp but they dont really speak
As no conversation could fit this scene.
And tomorrow as always, always comes
As she slips away - he still dumb
He felt the urge just as she felt the need
Now the need to get out, still carrying his seed,
Which trickles down her leg and onto her shoe
Onto the pavement and then out of view
Into the gutter and down into a drain
Joining a river and there to remain -
Theres no going back and theres nothing above
Its lust and loneliness that drives us along
Its lust and loneliness - but its seldom love.
The lyrics THE STORY OF SOMEONE'S SHOE of THE STYLE COUNCIL is also present in the album Confession of a pop group (1988)
Gli Style Council sono stati una band britannica di musica pop-soul, attiva dal 1982 al 1989. Fondati da Paul Weller, già frontman dei Jam, e Mick Talbot, il gruppo ha combinato influenze soul, jazz e funk con un approccio melodico e raffinato. I loro album, come "Café Bleu" (1983) e "Our Favourite Shop" (1984), hanno raggiunto il successo commerciale in Gran Bretagna, grazie a brani come "Speak Like A Child", "You're The Best Thing", e "The Lodgers". Gli Style Council sono stati un gruppo innovativo che ha contribuito a definire l'estetica e la musica della scena britannica degli anni '80. Weller, con il suo stile sartoriale e le sue canzoni introspettive, è diventato un'icona di stile e una figura chiave nella storia del rock britannico.
