Lyrics

Mr mug shot
Mr blood shot
Mr every second counts in the glove shop
Missed your palm on the face of the love-hot woman in the street
Mr staged mind
Mr blunt pose
Mr kissing in the rain with your eyes closed
Missed the tall dark twist on the fate of the make believe
When the sun rots
And the evening slips
To a tongue-tied place, where lips eclipse
Alibis clipped in paper chain receipts
As the tide turns
The sea-whips
Till your weak in the knees for the payslip
I'm watching and waiting and raising your sweet deceit
Will you hold the rope
To my telescope
Will you see straight into my eyes
Will you ever be
What the weather needs?
Cause the water's running high
In the back street
There's a back beat
A rumour reserved the athlete
Who's running for his life from a mind too sly to commit
And down south
There's a loud mouth
Whose words just heard what I'vd found out
The truth of the business is heartbreak and paper clips
So mr mug shot
Mr blood shot
What's the worth of your weight when the love's hot
What's the price of the games that you play for the make believe
Mr staged mind
Mr blunt pose
We already know what you can't show
You face in the light of the morning is bitter sweet
Will you hold the rope
To my telescope
Will you see straight into my eyes
Will you ever be
What the weather needs?
Cause the water's running high
I'm always under water with the way you hold my head and send me down
I'll wake here at the deep end for you see beneath the darkness that I've found
I'm always under water with the way you hold my head and send me down
I'll wake here at the deep end for you see beneath the darkness that I've found
Will you hold the rope
To my telescope
Will you see straight into my eyes
Will you ever be
What the weather needs?
Cause the water's running high
Will you hold the rope
To my telescope
Will you see straight into my eyes
Will you ever be
What the weather needs?
Cause the water's running high
