The Renaissance - ONLY WHEN I LAUGH lyrics

Sitting here alone my thoughts of you

I hold your photograph

It's simple black and white

You wear that smile that won my heart

The time we had was short

You had somewhere else to go

The drafty waiting room

The train pulls in, you go

Chorus:

You ask me if it hurts when I think of you

It's only when I laugh

Time heals now I am cried out

A brief encounter deep in France

A table set for two

Hands held, I melt into you

I wrote some letters to old friends

The good old days

I didn't know you then

To mention you to them would be absurd

But then you mean so much

Ice that's on my window panes

Slowly starts to thaw

The image of my tears reflects on you

That's all

Chorus

My days will pass as years

Till you return to me

The reason that it hurts when I think of you

It's only when I laugh

Time heals and now I am cried out

A brief encounter deep in France

A table set for two

Hands held, I melt into you

Repeat chorus twice
