John Waite - The Glittering Prize songtekst
Je score:
There's a silent movie running off, it's reel inside my mind As I try to fall asleep tonight on prescription lullabyes In the darkness there's a doorway That leads me back to you forever But these days there's only you and I in photographs Ambitions and dreams we've shared Now I wonder who has got the last laugh 'Cause I know you're crying And you know I'm cold inside Got no expectations for my pride As I reach for that glittering prize I remember on our wedding day, looking back at you Our eyes met and we said goodbye as we both said "I do" Didn't I make a promise, baby I would stand by you forever? But sometimes the best-laid plans flare up and blow away And fairytale logic comes, sweeps you heart Your soul, your world away 'Cause I know you're crying And you know I'm cold inside And I'm tired of living with that lie And now time is flying And you know I miss that fire 'Cos I feel for you I've got desire So I reach for that glittering prize No doll's house dreams or Valentines Just the future at the door Just leaving trains and empty rooms A broken band of gold 'Cause love don't live here anymore And some nights I'll come and see you And I know you'll let me in Two strangers in silence now 'Cause you know in love We could never win 'Cause I know you're crying And you know I'm cold inside And I'm tired of living with this lie These days 'Cause now time is flying And you know I miss that fire 'Cause I feel for you I've got desire Baby, baby In my world tonight (in your world tonight) Reach for that glittering prize (in my world) That's all I ever seemed to do (in your world tonight) Was reach for that glittering prize (in my world) I lost myself when I lost you (in your world tonight) As I reached for that glittering prize (in my world) And I hope that all your dreams come true (in your world tonight) When you reach for that glittering prize (in my world) In your world In my world tonight
