Lyrics
Eighteen years old in a new place
I threw down my suitacse and left my belongings behind
My natural sense of adventure
Had painted a picture of wonderful things in my mind
Underground train to Buchanan Street Station
Looked up to an urban horizon
Didn't yet know where I wanted to go
So I set off expecting surprise in the night
There's no way to turn back the time
And no reason to try
Looking back's all that we have once we say goodbye
She was a mystical vision
Her eyes seemed to glisten
I thought she was out of my league
Saw her and wanted to meet her
So I downed a tequila and wondered how hard it could be
I was a boy with just youth on my side
And a healthy mistrust of the city
She seemed to know everything
Took me under her wing
It was like she took pity on my
There's now way to turn back the time
And no reason to try
Looking back's all that we have once we say goodbye
Well the band on the stage played a lovesong
So I tried to sing a long
But none of my lyrics were right
She said you're not much of a dancer
So I'm not the answer
If you want romance here tonight
I said I see why you'd mention that now
But I promise that's not my intention somehow
I'm just a boy from the country
And i'm here to go see the bright metropolitan lights
There's no way to turn back the time
And no reason to try
Looking back's all that we have once we say goodbye
Well she kissed me goodnight on the corner
And I swear I saw her cry as she was walking away
So I threw myself in a Hackney
And sighed as the taxi drove off in the opposite lane
I knew that i'd never see her again
But i'll always remember the time that we spent
On the night of my Glasgow Love Story
And I'm only sorry that I can't go back to that day
Cause there's no way to turn back the time
And no reason to try
Looking back's all that we have once we say
There's no way to turn back the time
And no reason to try
Looking back's all that we have once we say goodbye
