Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Faces of stone
That watched from the dark
As the wind swirled around
And you took my arm in the park
[Verse 2]
Images framed
Hung high in the trees
And you talked of your youth
But the years had turned dry as the leaves
[Verse 3]
Your lover was gone
His replacement to hand
Just what the difference was
You could not understand
[Verse 4]
In darkening gray
We walked back through the streets
Then you talked all night long
Of your childhood home by the sea
[Verse 5]
And I, my disguise, a mask chosen by you
Believed every word I heard
At least I think that's what I tried to do
[Verse 6]
We sat on the roof
The night overflowed
No more was said
But I learned all I needed to know
[Verse 7]
Your Hollywood smile
Shone a light on the past
But it was the future
That you held so tight to your heart
