|
Everything comes and goes |
|
Marked by lovers and styles of clothes. |
|
Things that you've held high |
|
And told yourself were true, |
|
Lost or changing |
|
As the days comes down to you. |
|
It's down to you, constant stranger. |
|
You're a kind person, |
|
You're a cold person too. |
|
It's down to you, |
|
It all comes down to you, ooh. |
|
Go down to the pick-up station. |
|
You're craving warmth and beauty. |
|
You settle for less than fascination, |
|
A few drinks later you're not so choosy. |
|
The closing light strip of the shadows, |
|
On strange new flesh you found. |
|
Clutching the night to you like a fig leaf. |
|
You hurry to the blackness and the blankets, |
|
And you lay down an impression of your loneliness. |
|
In the morning there are lovers in the street. |
|
They look so high, you brush against a stranger, |
|
And you both appologize. |
|
Old friends seem indifferent. |
|
You must have brought that on. |
|
Old bonds have broken down. |
|
Love is gone, ooh love is gone, |
|
Written on your spirit the sad song. |
|
Love is gone, ooh love is gone, |
|
Written on your spirit the sad song. |
|
Love is gone. |
|
Everything comes and goes. |
|
Pleasure moves on too early, |
|
Trouble leaves too slow. |
|
Just when you're thinking |
|
That you've finally got it made, |
|
Bad news comes knocking for you |
|
At your garden gate. |
|
Knocking for you, constant stranger. |
|
You're a brute, you're an angel, |
|
You can crawl, you can fly too. |
|
It's down to you , |
|
It all comes down to you. |
