Level 42 Tracie
Steppin' out from underneath my shadow
Walking home from Fridays nine to five.
Rememberin' the long way way round the meadow
The one we used to take from time to time.
I thought about you
How you must have changed now
baby
far away from me
How I used to savour all your kisses
Where no one else could see.
Exchanging knowing glances across the schoolroom
Dreamin' of a love down by the sea.
Changing plans to cover up for one another
Working on our secret fantasy.
But now as I walk down the road to your house
baby
No one there but me.
How I wish that I could steal your kisses
Just as they used to be.
Tracie
where are you now
girl?
I don't know why this feeling's so strong.
Tracie
where have you been
You know there's no one now to tell us we're wrong.
Countin' by the street lights to the phone box
Where we used to meet before the dawn.
Smokin' on the top floor of the scholl bus
Promising the moon as we rode along.
But now If I saw you across a crowded dance floor
Or somewhere in the town
Would you show me what I have been missing
And spin me round and round?
Tracie
where are you now
girl?...
'Cause deep inside from some other place
I turn to find we're there face to face.
We laugh
we cry
we work and we play
Tracie
where are you now
girl?
Tracie
where are you now
girl?
