Cornerstone

Vai alla Traduzione

I thought I saw you in The Battleship but it was only a lookalike
She was nothing but a vision trick under the warning light
She was close, close enough to be your ghost
But my chances turned to toast when I asked her if I could call her your name

I thought I saw you in The Rusty Hook, huddled up in wicker chair
I wandered up for a closer look and kissed who ever was sitting there
She was close and she held me very tightly until I asked awfully politely
“Please can I call you her name?”

I elongated my lift home
I let him go the long way round
I smelt your scent on the seat belt and kept my short cuts to myself

I thought I saw you in The Parrot’s Beak messing with the smoke alarm
It was too loud for me to hear her speak and she had a broken arm
It was close, so close that the walls were wet
And she wrote it out in Letraset
“No, you can’t call me her name”

Tell me where’s your hiding place
I’m worried I’ll forget your face
And I’ve asked everyone
I’m beginning to think I imagined you all along

I saw your sister in The Cornerstone on the phone to the middle man
When I saw that she was on her own i thought she might understand
She was close, well you couldn’t get much closer
She said “I’m really not supposed to but yes, you can call me anything you want”
