The Blue Millionaire Lyrics - Marianne Faithfull

You've seen him 

In the undirected light of street dreams 

Doing nothing — 

Standing, like to seem casual 

With a resemblance to people held by fear. 

Lit by fire and disrepair. 

The blue millionaire. 

Don't listen and keep asking — 

Only stories reach this far. 

No one's left and no one's coming 

And I will disappear 

Far away from you, 

The American wind, 

And the blue millionaire.

Blue millionaire. 

Blue millionaire. 

There is no such thing as the Wrong Man 

Blue as the dusk that ended my day 

And shut off the light and air. 

I wish I could tell you 

How he put them in cages, 

Found you where you slept. 

Got me down with something else than bruises 

Tied me to a blue chair 

Lit by fire and disrepair 

The blue millionaire. 

Blue millionaire. 

Blue millionaire. 

Blue millionaire. 

Blue millionaire. 

Photos 

Seen him drinking gin from pale blue bottles, 

Drowning in shadow, 

Shadows moving in. 

Forever imagine 

Imagine it's him 

Nearby the window 

With dreams broken in. 

I don't laugh anymore — or smile, 

I am lost in the body, 

The passion of time. 

He is screening my dreams 

And everything that's mine. 

Don't stay in this mirror 

Other hands have left me in. 

You don't blow away as I do. 

It will be the same again. 

Turn and point away from here. 

Steal what you cannot win 

From the blue millionaire. 

Blue millionaire. 

Blue millionaire. 

Blue millionaire. 

Blue millionaire. 

Blue millionaire. 

Blue millionaire. 

Blue ...
