Snow blind, dog tired. Snow blind, and barb wired. Last chance in the jungle trance. And the fast step of the monkey dance craze. War paint, misty days and dizzy faint.
Silver and gold and it's growing cold. Autumn leaves lay as thick as thieves. Shivers down your spine chill you to the bone. 'cos the mandolin wind is the melody that turns your heart to stone.
She's got her hands on my steering wheel. Driving my car and I'm just the passenger. Taking me to heaven again. And I'm getting there too fast for her.
Listen. To the silence. Of the breaking of my heart. From a lowly vale. To the rolling hills. You and i. Lie worlds apart. Time is catching my breath.
I gave you flowers and you gave me faith. We are minds and hearts that move as one. Chameleon, warrior, gypsy and brave. Turn our eyes to the heart of the rising sun.
There's a lump in my throat and an ache in my heart. There's tears in my eyes, 'cos we're an ocean apart. There's nothing quite as real as being on my own.
All I ever need is the truth but I all ever want is affection. Masquerade as Jesus Christ and suffer the crucifixion. Lips that speak of love eternal, come heal my savaged skin.
