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 round 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 round the room 
My temper round the room 
My temper round the room 
whoo 

Now I can't see the sky at all 
I'm lying here I should be standing tall 
But oh, you looked straight through 
And through till 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 temper round the room 
My temper round the room 
My temper round the room 

And as the evening falls 
And you find a moments 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 threw your temper round the room 

Throw my temper round the room 
My temper round the room 

She was not the girl I thought her 
She could drive this man to murder 
All in an afternoon I throw my 
My temper round the room 
My temper round the room 
My temper round the room 
All in an afternoon
