Some Curelyrics. From the Wish album btw. I'm not that fond of the album, but the songs are great <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />.
A letter to Elise by the above mentioned Cure
Oh elise it doesn't matter what you say
I just can't stay here every yesterday like keep on acting out the same the way we act out
Every way to smile forget and make-believe we never needed
any more than this
any more than this
Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you do
I know I'll never really get inside of you
to make your eyes catch fire the way they should
The way the blue could pull me in
if they only would
if they only would
At least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else that hides away
From me and you there're worlds to part
with aching looks and breaking hearts
and all the prayers your hands can make
but I just take as much as you can throw
and then throw it all away
oh i throw it all away
Like throwing faces at the sky
Like throwing arms round
Yesterday
I stood and stared wide-eyed in front of you
And the face i saw looked back the way i wanted to
but i just can't hold my tears away the way you do
Elise believe I never wanted this
I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises
I thought you were the girl always dreamed about
But I let the dream go
And the promises broke and the make-believe ran out...
Oh Elise
It doesn't matter what you say
I just can't stay here every yesterday like keep on acting out the same the way we act out
Every way to smile forget and make-believe we never needed
any more than this
any more than this
And every time I try to pick it up like falling sand
As fast as I pick it up it suns away through my clutching hands
But there's nothing else I can really do
There's nothing else I can really do
at all...
From the Edge of the Deep Green Sea, still Cure. I think Robert Smith has some kind of thing with water, and here particually seas...
Every time we do this
I fall for her
Wave after wave after wave
It's all for her
And I know this can't be wrong I say
and I'll lie to keep her happy as long as I know that you know
that today I belong right here with you
right here with you...
And so we watch the sun come up from the edge of the deep green sea
And she listens like her head's on fire
Like she wants to believe in me
So I try
Put your hands in the sky
Surrender
Remember
We'll be here forever
And we'll never say goodbye...
I've never been so colourfully-see-through-head before
I've never been so wonderfully-me-you-want-some-more
And all I want is to keep it like this
You and me alone
A secret kiss
And don't go home, don't go away
Don't let this end
Please stay
Not just for today
Never never never never never let me go she says
Hold me like this for a hundred thousand million days
But suddenly she slows and looks down at my breaking face
Why do you cry? What did i say?
But it's just rain i smile
brushing my tears away...
I wish i could just stop
I know another moment will break my heart
Too many tears
too many times
too many years I've cried over you
How much more can we use it up?
Drink it dry, take this drug?
Looking for something forever gone
But something we will always want?
Why why why are you letting me go? she says
I feel you pulling back
I feel you changing shape...
And just as I'm breaking free
She hangs herself in front of me
Slips her dress like a flag to the floor
And hands in the sky
Surrenders it all...
I whish i could just stop
I know another moment will break my heart
Too many tears
Too many times
Too many years I've cried for you
It's always the same
Wake up in the rain
Head in pain
Hung in shame
A different name
Same old game
Love in vain
And miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away from home again...
