All in an Afternoon - The Phoenix Foundation

He was not the boy you thought him

Now you are dying of boredom

All in an afternoon I throw my temper around the room

She was not the girl I thought her

She could drive a man to murder

All in an afternoon I throw my temper around the room

My temper around the room, my temper ‘round the room

Now I can’t see the sky at all

I’m lying here I should be standing tall

But ah you look straight through and through ‘til I

I don’t know what to do

And the way you’re keeping silent

Makes me think that I should be more quiet

All in an afternoon I throw my, my temper around the room

My temper around th room, my temper ‘round the room

But as th evening falls and you find a moment’s pause

What a silly boy you have been

As if she could care, she was never even here

She just wanted you to disappear, and you threw your temper round the room

(Threw my) temper around the room

(Threw my) temper around the room
