Intro

Verse

This is just to say hello

 And to let you know

 I think of you from time to time

I know I never really knew you

 But somehow I miss you

 And wish that you'd stayed in my life

Making contact gets harder

 As the silence grows longer

 And isn't it only me

Who'd like us to see each other?

 How I would hate to be a bother

 The way we left it was you'd ring

Chorus

I'm under no illusion

As to what I meant to you

But you made an impression

And sometimes I still feel the bruise

Sometimes I still feel the bruise

Verse

Now and then I stumble on

 What I've misplaced but never lost

 An ache I first felt long ago

Though you've appeared and disappeared

 Throughout these past few years

 I'd be surprised if you now showed

Making contact gets harder

 As the silence grows longer

 And why would you think of me

When you were not the one in love?

 When you were not the dreamer?

 When you were just the dream?

Chorus

I'm under no illusion

As to what I meant to you

But you made an impression

And sometimes I still feel the bruise

Sometimes I still feel the bruise
