  • Bob Geldof Love Like a Rocket Lyrics

           

    Terry still meets Julie every Friday night

    Down at Waterloo underground

    Nothing much has changed

    Except now they're both afraid

    But they're not sure what went wrong

    Terry holds her tight and says

    Some things I can't explain

    But in twenty years baby

    Some things have got to change

    Paradise is gone

    If it was ever on

    But there's one thing Julie

    That'll always be the same

    My love is a rocket

    Like a rocket on fire

    Goes straight up to the sky

    Love like rocket

    Like a rocket on fire

    I'm gonna love you till the day I die

    But Julie's not convinced that that's enough anymore

    Cos the Waterloo sunset won't work for her anymore



    Julie cries a lot but she tries to hide the tears

    From the kids coming in from school

    She's looking at a picture taken Margate '66

    Of Terry on the pier looking cool

    She tries to remember the boy in the snap

    But the baby's woken up from her afternoon nap

    She runs a wrinkled hand through her tired hair

    Then sighs and mutters something sounding close to despair

    But love like a rocket

    Like a rocket on fire

    He's gonna love her till the day he dies

    But in the middle of another little household chore

    She knows the Waterloo sunset won't work for her anymore



    Standing on the bridge Terry stops and checks his wrist

    As the water rushes by below

    It's almost half past six but the people moving by

    Make it seem like twenty years ago

    Julie gets there late but she always makes him wait

    Until the sky turns from red to gold

    She says "Terry I don't think we should come here no more"

    And like he's waited for this moment

    He just stares and says "I Know"

    And love like a rocket

    Like a rocket on fire

    Goes straight up to the sky

    Loves like a rocket

    Like a rocket on fire

    He'll love her till the day he dies



    And then he squeezes Julie's hand as the water starts to glow

    A tear falls in the river then disappears with the flow

    And is gone.
