Stranglers - Face lyrics

rate me

Woke up on a Sunday cloud

Never noticed all the rain

Felt the sun behind the shades

Wanted you to take my blood but

Sunk into an empty place

Pulse was gunning through my brain

Felt you underneath my skin

Wanted to bind my hands

But you walk by with all I had

And I lie where it all began

You're all that's gonna save me now (x 3)

Broke up under summer's haze

My pieces falling everywhere

Felt your sun upon my frame

So strong I couldn't stand the pain

Thought about a Wednesday child

Felt the bullet in my back

Dreamt my hands around your face

Wanted you to waste my life

But you walk by where I still stand

And so I cry 'cause I'm a man

And the face I want to see

Is the face I want to be
