You will have a dress of white. You will have a ring of gold. You will have a paper snow. We'll fall. See the wall. The wall is black. We will have a heart attack.
A banker in a tired suit. Is counting in his head. He's standing in your overcoat. He's lying on your bed. President gas is tap dancing. For the banker he's a thief.
Speak, talk to me. Show what I am. And cannot be, talk. Entertain me. Why the want for all that I can't touch. And all that I can't see?. Why the want for all that I can't speak?.
Don't be a girl for all their kisses. For all their kisses taste so sweet. Don't be a girl for all their flowers. All their flowers fade when the day comes.
Give me all your paper ma. Gimme all your jazz. Give me something that I need. Something I can have. Mrs. London's coming round. She's coming with her son.
i try to remember a kiss. and i only get sorrow. and yesterday's faded away. now there's only tomorrow. and everything passes and changes. and comes to an end i know.
people call to say hello. they call to talk about the weather. all the places i don't go. they call to talk to me. they've got names without a face. and they've got faces i don't see.
the air here tastes like poison. the traffic moves on broken roads. the river runs like silver. my own feelings let me down. she's 14 and she's fading.
Love is hiding in the city. Here in all of you. Put the place in cages. But don't label it a zoo. . Get a girl inside your head. Get out of the way. Write yourself a postcard.
city sky comes down like rain. through all the alleys to the sea. i hear footsteps getting louder. drowning in my sleep. painted lies on painted lips.
a phonebook full of accidents. a girl to drive your car. a suit to wear on mondays. and a coat a magazine. a heavy rain a holiday. a painting of the wall.
Now the time is almost done. The race for last is almost run. And almost paid. . From where I stand, I've got a view. Over all the miles of you. Where I wait.
when you're out in the crowd. trying to make it all pay. and we're telling the world. everything that you said. every word that you say. and we're taking it down.
In the house where Alice lives. (Alice's). it's a mess of souvenirs. let to remind you telling the time. ?. ?. people say it's cold outside. you disagree, she's telling me....
Alive(for once in my lifetime). . One time just for a moment. I had time on my side. I felt like one in a miljion. i fell out of the blue. I feel dumb,.
We are both so second hand. We've been around. It really doesn't matter. Does it anyway today?. All our lies will find us out. When we are dreaming. It really doesn't matter.
Play another wedding song. A wedding song goes on and on. See the churches falling down. This is only in your mind. We're useless. We're useless. All their dresses stand so white.
I'm in love with catholics. I'm in love with your blue cars. I'm in love with the words that scream. We are so stupid, we all dream. I'm in love with Frank Sinatra.
Play another wedding song. A wedding song goes on and on. See the churches falling down. This is only in your mind. We're useless. We're useless. All their dresses stand so white.
Until she comes again. I can hear the things she said. I feel no thoughts to move my head. Until she comes again. And with her step. I move my feet. And with her hand.
