Lyrics

The Alabama nights
once held me to ransom
I had ghosts in my eyes,
you were tall, dark and handsome and our
whirlwind romance just hit us
like Hurricane Sandy
I wasn’t looking for love
but you were
the last man standing!

Chorus:

The Alabama nights
once held me so tightly
You had stars in your eyes
I vamped Holly Golightly and then
we both got carried away
by Hurricane Sandy
I wasn't looking for love
but you were
the last man standing

Repeat Chorus

Chorus

And the radio was playing
'Sweet Home Alabama'
like we're long lost refugees
from some other time.
And I know we met as lovers
in the heart of Dixie
but somehow we left as strangers
In the heat of the night
we left the scene of the crime.

Repeat Chorus

Bridge

Beautiful strangers,
we’ll always remember them
Like some jaded ex lover
from Church Rd, Birmingham.
He had a dragon tattoo
and one said 'Perfectly Flawed'
We both won some battles
but nobody ever wins the war
