Your Smile Stops The Hands Of Time Lyrics - Surf - Roddy Frame

The skeletal limbs of the trees, daring the girls to compete 

All eyebrows and elbows and knees, knocking the guys off their feet 

You say you'll never belong, let the stars shine and prove you wrong 

Sadness will string you along 

Your smile could stop the hands of time 

Darkness broke like a wave and left all your feelings afloat 

You drowned in the sounds as they played, carried away on the notes 

Now the music is making you yawn, 

Just there on the air to hang your feelings upon 

But the world's singing your song 

Come on, let's stop the hands of time 

The heavens above encircle you, straining to catch a glimpse 

Of what happens when love slips out of view 

Instead of just crashing in 

Feeling so out of place on this planet that's whirling through space 

Wipe that frown from your face 

Your smile has stopped the hands of time
