A Casual Affair - The Style Council

Its funny how time seems to soften the blow

And only with time do I see at all

That the promises made were the start of the fall

The biggest mistake was to promise at all

Shout the odds

And what does it matter now?

That dreams are a passing cloud

Their place is taken

With many more fools like us The time that we had we now have to repay

The sweet things we ate now leave a bitter taste

Can you ever remember a night or a day

You ever regretted eating that way

Say Im wrong

But inside you know Im right

And useless to try and fight

They say it was worth it But you know it never was

The hurt inside

And all the wasted tears weve cried

Oh, the fun we had

All the good things just turned bad

Oh, the memories

Rearrange themselves to misery for me Say Im wrong

But inside you know Im right

And useless to try and fight

They say it was worth it But you know it never was

The hurt inside

And all the wasted tears weve cried

Oh, the fun we had

All the good things just turned bad

Oh, the memories

Rearrange themselves to misery for me A casual affair in a casual way

We dont go far living from day to day

It just is a laugh that we left unnamed

You came here with pride but they told you was changed

Shout the odds

And what does it matter now?

That dreams are a passing cloud

Their place is taken

With many more fools like us
