Charlotte's Face

I'm looking at my hand
And my lifeline's shrinking
Standing on the sand
Watching you sinking
I believe in love
I believe in drinking
I believe you're happy
I believe you're staring

At Charlotte's face
Charlotte's face

Now I'm singing again
Because my love is growing
It can travel 'round the world
And it can keep on going

Charlotte's face
Charlotte's face
Charlotte's face
Let's all go round to Charlotte's place

You've been blowing my trumpet
You've been snowing on me
I've been shouting your name
At everyone I see
You pulled me up
You filled my space
I raised my eyes
And I saw Charlotte's face

Charlotte's face
Charlotte's face

Julie Christie

It looks like it might rain today
It doesn't really matter
I still wish I was in your shoes
And
I find I'm out of my mind
In the flooded passages of time
But I breathe so well when I'm with you

I find time to look at myself
Yeah
I can't believe my own eyes
No one looks like you tonight

You found your own way home
You hacked your own way out of here
Oh Julie, Julie

We could be looking down
On the rain and the clouds and the killing sounds
We could be in flight
I think I'll wait, I'll wait for you
So
Don't say I'm not believing
But I couldn't find you anywhere
Underwater, trying to choose
The right way to be without you
The right way to explain the truth
Oh, find the time to be on my side
I have been lying again
All in the line of duty
And
No one looks like you tonight

You know I can't go home
I cannot bear to lose you again
Oh
Julie, Julie
If you could be found
I would come back from the sea
Oh
Julie, Julie
I would let myself drown
If you would believe in me
Julie, Julie
Breathe to me

All the time now
All night now
Julie, Julie
I'm not sure now
I'm not sure now
Julie

Poisoned Angel

It's your castle
You should guard it
I asked you
To sing for me
You just cried instead
I don't know
What you'll think of me
For saying what I said

It's what you wanted
Now here you are
She's got the whole world in her hands
And she didn't even know
No one's ever told her
She's so in love with her misery
The whole world makes her colder

Destiny

You whispered something in my ear
And I couldn't sink that low
You were being poisoned
And you didn't even know
I asked you to think for me
And all I got was tears
How can I turn back the clock
After all these years

Incurable

When I see you and you're shining
I'll run to your smile
And when the rain stops blinding me
I'll never ask why
There's so much I need to tell you
And you're miles away
I've been through Hell to talk to you
And there's nothing to say

The sun comes up
And I can see your eyes
I'm not the shadow I used to be
I've lost the things
That made this paradise
I'm so blind I can really see

Just close your eyes and clear the clouds
Oh I hope you never change
If I seem so different now
It's because I've stayed the same

If people stuck to what they say
Then life just wouldn't be the same
I think I've lost the will to fly
It's an incurable insight
And when I watch the sun go down
These memories make no more sound
I'd love to hold you and we'd shine
But we just haven't got the time

Painted Promise

You shed your skin for no one
And you're blind as you speak
You're staring at the world
While I'm watching my feet
I gave you the controls
Now you're stabbing my back
I can't change the world
So don't look at me like that

And I can find
Behind your eyes
A promise I can hide behind

I can fade away

If I fight myself
I can only win
You cut off my hands
I didn't feel a thing
When you look straight through me
I can't act naturally
So don't look for shame in me
Look for some kind of belief

And if I pray
You'll go away
All those promises you paint
Will just

Fade
Fade away

I was in the softest mood
I was dreaming of you
What's another change?
Another promise to lose?

So if these walls
Just crack and fall
We can walk into the flames
And I'll

Breathe
Breathe in your air again
Breathe
Breathe in your air again

Artificial Flowers

All this time
You haven't changed your mind
I was looking for clouds
Now what did I find?

These crucial conversations
Mean everything to me

I started laughing
Was it always this way?
I started slipping
And now you're flying away

So I packed my toothbrush
Hid all my letters
And I set off on this passionate journey

Were you listening?
This was the shortest day
I started slipping
And now you're climbing away

You know it's hard to fight with The Devil on your back
It's hard to fight with The Devil on your back

You painted me
All sorts of colours
Then stripped them away
With these artificial flowers

I was never that strong

And all you left me
For crying out loud
Was a place to kneel
And some artificial flowers

I was never that strong
