A Cloud Of Mystery |
Calm those vowels down |
No-one's thinking of you right now |
She’s dressed up — It’s her duty to the town |
It’s empty. |
It’s vast |
But it imposes it’s will |
In a crowded room |
Her painted features smothered in the gloom — |
Already resigned |
At night she scrapes |
Away the face that she creates |
The mirror sighs… |
Why can’t we always meet |
Under a cloud of mystery? |
The noise from a hundred mouths |
Working through memory |
Big budget, Showbiz exit — |
She’ll go far |
Acting coy was her favourite ploy |
It quickly loses its charm |
The frosted cheek you turned |
Will add to your mystique |
He burns for you |
I threw myself into your world |
Only to come up short… |
Why can’t we always meet |
Under a cloud of mystery? |
The noise from a hundred mouths |
Working through memory |
King for a Thursday afternoon |
Before the time when you withdrew |
Why can’t we always meet |
Under a cloud of mystery? |
Bathroom lights stud the evening |
Where the buildings skim the air |
Hairsprayed curls push the cheek |
As they swoon on a wooden dance floor |
There’s nothing worse than taking a chance |
On an outdated dance… |
Why can’t we always meet |
Under a cloud of mystery? |
The noise from a hundred mouths |
Cursing through memory |
King for a Thursday afternoon |
Before the time when you withdrew |
Why can’t we always meet |
Under a cloud of mystery? |
