Aztec Camera - Pianos and Clocks lyrics

Your rating:


Words and music by Roddy Frame



Well, hello there, sweet to see you,

Like your colour, how you doin'?

I've been battered and bewildered

In the beauty of your ruins

Flash, flash and I am blinded

By the fact that you've been born

Feels like fiction life goes on

Brown eyes are gone



Silence is a virtue

I was taught so I agreed

Conversation half forgotten

Is the hole I hold in me

And all our language and expression

Is decimated by decree

The sound of song dies in the dawn

Brown eyes are gone



Descended slowly on the

Steps of the cathedral

Where I kissed you,

Remembered candles lit with meaning

I imposed but that escaped you

With your brown eyes

And your blue jeans

I heard the chiming of the clocks

Kick out the shifting

Shuffling rhythm of your docs



Hit the road with my compadre

Saw the city incomplete

We were tossed and torn and tumbled

In your famous foreign streets

I felt so fearless and forgotten

No-one numbered nothing neat

The son has shone, we still belong,

Brown eyes are gone



So farewell then senorita

Pianos played and set the tone

I was singing like a servant

To the tune of telephones

I wish you freedom and forgiveness

And a time that is your own

Blue is the colour, mine's the moment

Brown eyes are gone
