Gino Vannelli - Constantly Constantine lyrics

rate me

It's all a vicious game a tragic joke

A pointless twist of fate

The sun will rise the sun will set

All for it's own resplendent sake

But fools like you get mist eyed

As you walk along the strand

You claim your eyes can see eternity

In a single grain of sand

Seeking Heaven in the ruins waisting away

Believing life is but a dream

That's why the world kills you constantly

Constantine

Don't speak to me of love or tenderness

Your notions of romance

The moon will wax the moon will wane

And there are those who would fall into a trance

See the stars in your hallowed sky

A million poets strong

Not a bleeding word is ever heard

And the stars keep shining on

Yet there you sigh all mystified staring at a rose

As if your eyes have really seen

That's why the world kills you constantly

Constantine

Sooner or later

You'll choose to be smart

You'll see the world for what it is

And not some sacred work of art

Save yourself from certain hell

Keep your head above your tender heart

(Your tender heart)

Seeking Heaven in the ruins wasting away

Believing life is but a dream

That's why the world kills you constantly

Constantine

Constantly Constantine

Constantine

It's killing you

It's killing me

It's killing you

Oh God it's killing me

Constantine
