DEL AMITRI

DEL AMITRI - You're Gone lyrics

rate me

I turned on a T.V. 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

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 fifteen minutes later you're

Lying in each other's arms

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

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

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

Sunday night's the night for loving

And squeezing out the weekend's last drops

Sunday night's the night for forgiving

maybe that's why

They shut the shops

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

I turned on a T.V. 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.
