For A While It Was Going So Well

You had Christmas in the summer
It wasn't long til you were lovers
And every moment uncovered
New treasure,
New pleasures

You moved in with your backpack
Your razors and moustache
And for a while there you thought that
This could not get
Any better

And for a while it was going so well
Oh well

By Valentines it was over
The travel bug took hold of you
And you left for Victoria
But the weather
would get to you

With a novel and a guitar
You're convinced you didn't miss her
But by doing so you think of her
And you wonder
What you done

And for a while it was going so well

For a little while you saw
What the world had in store
In the face of the one you adored
And all you knew to do was withdraw
