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 'Cause 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
