The Party Lyrics - Marillion

She bought a bottle of cider 

From the shop on the corner 

They didn't stop her 

Thought she was older 

She took a bus ride 

To a name and a number 

A house full of music 

And a hatful of wonder 

And some of the people 

That she thought that she knew 

Were never like this 

When she saw them at school 

She's never been anywhere like this before 

Everybody's so out of control 

She was in a back room 

Full of strange aromas 

And noises and candles 

That was where he found her 

He took her to a garden 

Full of rain and silence 

And she could smell the soil and the trees 

And see the succulent light from the little fires in his eyes 

Pulling shapes out of the night 

She was enchanted 

Then it's twelve o'clock 

And the last bus is gone 

They're gonna go crazy 

When they hear what she's done 

And higher is lower 

And less is like more 

She's never felt anything like this before, 

And then it was yesterday 

He said, "Oh, by the way" 

"Welcome to your first party"
