Del Amitri - You're Gone текст песни

Исполнитель: Del Amitri

альбом: Waking Hours (Re-Presents)


I turned on a TV station
And lip-read with the sound turned down
It was pro-celeb, mouth-to-mouth resuscitation
With Esther Rantzen playing the one who's drowned
And in a room next door a couple is fighting
But isn't that just one of love's charms
When moods change as fast as lightning
And 15 minutes later you're lying in each other's arms
And you're gone
And you're gone
They say that it's better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all
But if you sit down and count the cost of all those losses
There's no profit at all

And this city gets crazy at Christmas
Glitter guards the crucifix all over the place
Its head gets too big for its body
And its mouth gets too big for its face

And you're gone
And you're gone
Never throw away an old newspaper
Everyday's rich with its current accounts
Prince visits Philippines and parliament debates it
Back page, column five, somebody's wedding's announced
And Sunday night's the night for loving
And squeezing out the weekend's last drops, yeah
Sunday night's the night for forgiving
Maybe that's why they shut the shops
And you're gone
And you're gone
One day you wake up
And all the pain you've given out gets returned
But I'm not sorry now
I've payed for what I've learned
And you're gone
You're gone

I turned on a TV station
And lip-read with the sound turned down
It was the Church of Christ playing "The Price Is Right"
Where everybody starves while Leslie Crowther counts
