Lyrics The Face of an Enemy - Magnum

The Face of an Enemy

Don’t hear the thunder come close
If I’m a fool who cares
I’m just a joker, the cool host
But no one knows how I feel
This thing’s for real
Wrong time in the wrong place
I’m looking out for you
There’s nothing I can do
Empty the room
Silent and cold now
No sweet perfume
You used to be there
Empty the room
I picture you now
Traded the moon
I’m getting nowhere
I’m on a journey somewhere
I’ve learnt to compromise
'Cause in this world, things just ain’t fair
I’ll keep my feet on the tracks
No turning back
Wrong time in the wrong place
I’m looking out for you
There’s nothing I can do
Empty the room
Silent and cold now
No sweet perfume
You used to be there
Empty the room
I picture you now
Traded the moon
I’m getting nowhere
You still get through to me
I hang on desperately
Senses betraying my heart
Like the face of an enemy
Smiling so tenderly
Tearing my whole world apart
Empty the room
Silent and cold now
No sweet perfume
You used to be there
Empty the room
I picture you now
Traded the moon
I’m getting nowhere
Empty the room
Silent and cold now
No sweet perfume
You used to be there
Empty the room
I picture you now
Traded the moon
I’m getting nowhere
