Oh, my love has lost her diamond touch. And I, I've lost her emerald eyes. And she is falling from my clutch. But the strange thng is, it comes as no surprise...
Tonight, I felt it go for good (tonight I felt it go for good) Last night, I thought it was invincible (last night I thought it was invincible) But now the bells have cracked, I don't look back; We always knew they would. And now the bells don't ring so much, For I've lost my magic touch.
And my love has lost her stained-glass face. And I can't hear her sirens call. And soon someone will step into my place, 'Cause I can't hear their silvery sound at all...
Tonight, I felt it go for good (tonight I felt it go for good) Last night, I thought it was invincible (last night I thought it was invincible) But now the bells have cracked, I don't look back; We always knew they would. And now the bells don't ring so much, For I've lost my magic touch.
All the pennies and the pounds won't buy it back. When my love comes 'round, she's always dressed in black. All the pennies and the pounds won't buy it back. When my love comes 'round, she's always dressed in black.
And my love has lost her sun-down smile. And I, I've lost my moonlight glow. And she hasn't come in colours for a while, But, of course, we all know: These things just come and go.
Tonight, I felt it go for good (tonight I felt it go for good) Last night, I thought it was invincible (last night I thought it was invincible) But now the bells have cracked, I don't look back; We always knew they would. And now the bells don't ring so much, For I've lost my magic touch. And she's falling from my clutch, 'Cause I've lost my magic touch.
She was a murderess in a million dollar dress Far from these haunted shores she went She was a billionaire just like the girl with flaxen hair A beauty queen from the scene she had been set Beneath those wide dark eyes She was never satsified
Please Venus lay your head down low Tomorrow find somewhere else to call your home When you rise again the dunes will dance The sand will sing the silver shells will glow O your love has gone but your not alone
So as she left the sands A dream boat with hard lock hands Fingers full of pearl rings Should have seen her shake her tambourine And her pride and joy, was her darling boy He came invisible and disappeared into the screen And beneath those city lights Her heart started beating like dynamite
Please venus lay your head down low Tomorrow find somewhere else to call your home When you rise again the dunes will dance The sand will sing the silver shells will glow O your love has gone but your not alone
And you'll find her at the fairground At the end of the pier Watching all the ships go by With the shell against her ear And now she takes her leave Cos there's nothing left here to believe And she walks beneath the waves once more She rides again Riding a shell some kind of hollow eve And walks upon new golden shore And if you see her go ask her where's she's been Just kneel and follow the sound of that tambourine
Please venus lay your head down low Tomorrow find somewhere else to call your home When you rise again the dunes will dance The sand will sing the silver shells will glow O your love has gone but your not alone x2
There was a girl who lived in London town. The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams, French fantasies on cinema screens...
And she knew from the finish to the start It was bound to fall apart Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart. Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?
There was a boy who lived inside his head. He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead. He couldn't see in front of his eyes; His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...
And he knew from the finish to the start It was bound to fall apart Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart. Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?
Oooh...
There was a boy and girl who fell in love: They both were in love with the stars and sky above, Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...
And they knew from the finish to the start It was bound to fall apart Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart. Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart?
