Lyrics
Thought I'd seen you 'round before
Then you came knocking on my door
We were only sixty years
And yet you took away all of my fears
I held your hand and then I knew
I was the one and only one for you
We were married at twenty-one
Expecting any day our first-born son
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
That sugar and spice
Everything was so nice
But it's all come undone
Has its course just been run?
It's over my head
Far too much has been said
Tell me what has become
You were my number one
Bought a flat in Golders Green
A second-hand fridge and a washing machine
You found a job at Marks and Spencers
Filling up shelves, it was pretty senseless
But every day at a half-past five
I'd be waiting at the station for you to arrive
I'd take your hand, I'd walk you home
And if it rained, we'd shelter in the Hippodrome
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
That sugar and spice
Everything was so nice
But now it's just not the same
Just bitterness and blame
We were oh so high
Could have reached for the sky
But now our love is in flames
In bitterness and blame
Oh, where has it gone?
So many dreams built upon
That sugar and spice
Everything was so nice
That sugar and spice
Everything nice
Just castles of sand
And very thin ice
That sugar and spice
Everything nice
