"Unrequited Love" lyrics

A bloke hard faced down on his luck
Sits alone in a coffee shop
Watching as the people pass him by
Although he doesn't know her face
He recognises love too late
And there she goes, she'll never see him smile

Though I'm scared, I'm not shaking baby, no
Like a bird on the glide, not shaking baby, no
Like the constant in her eyes, not shaking baby, no
No

Although he doesn't look like much
If you scratch the surface paint comes off
Colours that were bright but no longer see the light
And maybe some day later on
They'll meet again in the coffee shop
And he'll pull from his coat the love song he never wrote

Though I'm scared, I'm not shaking baby, no
Like a bird on the glide, not shaking baby, no
Like the constant in her eyes, not shaking baby, no
No

Though I'm scared, I'm not shaking baby, no
Like a bird on the glide, not shaking baby, no
Like the constant in her eyes, not shaking baby, no
Like the moon in the sky, not shaking baby, no
Like the sun on the rise, not shaking baby, no

Not shaking no, I'm not shaking baby, I'm not shaking anymore
When the world is on fire, not shaking baby, no
No
