Pianos and Clocks |
Well, hello there, sweet to see you |
Like your colour, how you doin'? |
I’ve been battered and bewildered |
In the beauty of your ruins |
Flash, flash and I am blinded |
By the fact that you’ve been born |
Feels like fiction life goes on |
Brown eyes are gone |
Silence is a virtue |
I was taught so I agreed |
Conversation half forgotten |
Is the hole I hold in me |
And all our language and expression |
Is decimated by decree |
The sound of song dies in the dawn |
Brown eyes are gone |
Descended slowly on the |
Steps of the cathedral |
Where I kissed you |
Remembered candles lit with meaning |
I imposed but that escaped you |
With your brown eyes |
And your blue jeans |
I heard the chiming of the clocks |
Kick out the shifting |
Shuffling rhythm of your docs |
Hit the road with my compadre |
Saw the city incomplete |
We were tossed and torn and tumbled |
In your famous foreign streets |
I felt so fearless and forgotten |
No-one numbered nothing neat |
The son has shone, we still belong |
Brown eyes are gone |
So farewell then senorita |
Pianos played and set the tone |
I was singing like a servant |
To the tune of telephones |
I wish you freedom and forgiveness |
And a time that is your own |
Blue is the colour, mine’s the moment |
Brown eyes are gone |
