Interpretation of Love - Wouter Hamel

I walked around for hours

In the pouring rain

I never thought I’d get used to this pain

My feet are hurting

But inside I’m calm and clear

Oh how I want you to be near

This part of town reminds me

Of sunny afternoons

My favorite tin pan alley tunes

Your eyes so shiny

The sunlight on your skin

Imagine how grand it would have been

It could have been more than a sily fling

I would have bought you flowers anything

But you just called me up

And called things off

That’s not my interpretation of love

My friends all told me that

You’re not the one for me

But I fell in love so foolishly

My heart kept skipping

When we used to kiss

I never knew this could exist

This part of town will always

Be a part of you and me

Those summer nights in '93

Just lingered on my lips

Imagine how grand it could have been

It could have been more than a sily fling

I would have bought you flowers anything

But you just called me up

And called things off

That’s not my interpretation of love

Interpretation of love

I don’t believe in fairy tails

Or romance novels, dear

But all those things I used to say were

Honest and sincere

So let’s bring out the gospel choir

And cue the violins

'Cause that’s how grand

It could have been

It could have been more than a sily fling

I would have bought you flowers anything

But you just called me up

And called things off

That’s not my interpretation of love

It could have been more than a sily fling

I would have bought you flowers anything

But you just called me up

And called things off

That’s not my interpretation of love

Interpretation of love
