lyrics

'82, late in June, you were there at a party
with a friend of a friend who was desperate for blow.
'83, January, at the table behind me;
with a smile that's reserved for the people you don't know.
And I can't choose, how I know you - but I know you.

'84, at the door of my girlfriend's apartment;
you were just moving in dropping by to say hello.
'85, New Years Eve, charging glasses together
with a smile that's reserved for I feeling I can't show.
And I can't choose, how to tell you - but I'll tell you.

EUREKA, EVERY TIME I'M NEAR YOU
KNOWING I'LL NEVER CHANGE YOUR POINT OF VIEW
WON'T STOP ME LIVING JUST TO HEAR YOU BREATHE EUREKA TOO.

'91, with a son - you look happy together;
'92, out the blue, you decide that it's the end.
'93, drunkenly I propose to do better
Turned around, turned me down its never the same again.
& I can't choose how to lose you - but I'll lose you.

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Dates that fade in your years
are but landmarks in mine.
If you looked through your tears
only miles of brief encounters you would find.
