We walked out one autumn evening
|
Someone up there made a fair appear
|
Coloured light that caught our eyes
|
And reggae music caught our ears
|
We laughed as they played all the songs
|
We wanted least of all to hear
|
I guess that's when I knew
|
That we'd be more than just good friends
|
It happened just by chance
|
|
Someone up there - someone up there makes the sun and sea
|
Someone up there - someone up there brought my girl to me
|
Someone up there - someone up there makes the wind and rain
|
Someone up there - someone up there took her back again
|
And just for once
|
You can't fight back
|
No messing with the hand of fate
|
Oh no
|
|
The paper ran an ad
|
That had you running to the other side of town
|
Working for a man I never could make out
|
Who started hanging round
|
Someone up there got me drinking got me drunk
|
And made me put him down
|
The way you looked at me I knew
|
That we'd be coming to an end
|
It happened just by chance
|
|
Someone up there - someone up there makes the sun and sea
|
Someone up there - someone up there brought my girl to me
|
Someone up there - someone up there makes the wind and rain
|
Someone up there - someone up there took her back again
|
And just for once
|
You can't fight back
|
No messing with the hand of fate
|
Oh no
|
