Tiffanys Lyrics - Prefab Sprout

Time is the healer, time was on my hands 

The bus stopped at tiffany's 

So i went to hear the band 

I saw Cinderella, then the curtain dropped 

Time hung heavy on my hands but today 

The clock just stopped 

I heard the music saw those pictures on the wall 

I fell in love with tiffany's i thought it said it all 

Soothed by your saxophones i thought you'd understand 

I'd love to sing my songs for you but i don't know if i can 

Said don't know if i can, don't know if i can 

Midnight is striking there's a pumpkin by the door 

It's five o'clock and the streets are clear am i alone once more ? 

I watched the dawn in an electric storm my compass blew haywire 

There she stands with a slipper in her hand 

And her eyes were the colour of fire 

I saw you crying from that doorway for sometime 

It's no use drying your eyes ''cause i see those tell tale signs 

I saw you crying from that doorway for sometime 

It's no use drying your eyes ''cause i see those tell tale signs 

I see those tell tale signs, i see those tell tale signs 

Time is no healer in truth she plays no part 

When money's got you in your pocket where can she put your heart ? 

She led a charmed life so i believe 

Before she left she wrote a note and this is how it reads 

I saw you crying from that doorway for sometime 

It's no use drying your eyes ''cause i see those tell tale signs 

I saw you crying from that doorway for sometime 

It's no use drying your eyes ''cause i see those tell tale signs 

I see those tell tale signs, i see those tell tale signs
