Back in 1985 |
|
When Cupid saw me take a dive |
|
I didn't think that I'd still be |
|
Thinking of you now so wistfully |
|
You never took me through your hallway |
|
Never led me up the stairs |
|
Past the years of useless longing |
|
And where you used to say your prayers |
|
And, yes, it's hard for me to stay |
|
Harder still to stay away |
|
The whisper of your mind |
|
Ties the flowers to the rain |
|
The window of your dream |
|
Voices the sun on your lips |
|
You know what stopped you liking music? |
|
Well, that's what always held you back |
|
What puts emotion at an arm's length |
|
And takes the very thing you lack |
|
For you're not shallow, you're not Godless |
|
We all need something to believe |
|
And you believe you've lost that something |
|
Just lost the will to be deceived |
|
And, yes, it's hard for me to stay |
|
Harder still to stay away |
|
The whisper of your mind |
|
Ties the flowers to the rain |
|
The window of your dream |
|
Voices the sun on your lips |
|
The whisper of your mind |
|
Ties the flowers to the rain |
|
The window of your dream |
|
Voices the sun on your lips |
|
Stay away |
|
Stay away |
|
Stay away |
|
Stay away |
|
And, yes, it's hard for me to stay |
|
Harder still for me to stay away |
|
The whisper of your mind |
|
Ties the flowers to the rain |
|
The window of your dream |
|
Voices the sun on your lips |
|
The whisper of your mind |
|
Ties the flowers to the rain |
|
The window of your dream |
|
Voices the sun on your lips |
