Lyrics

Out on the tar plains, the glides are moving
All looking for a new place to drive
You sit beside me, so newly charming
Sweating dewdrops glisten, freshing your side
(Chorus)
The sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress, all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart
Way down the lane away, living for another day
The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze
Swim, seagull, in the sky
Towards that hollow western isle
My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze
(Repeat Chorus)
Sing blue silver
With your beating heart
And watching lovers part, I feel you smiling
What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind
To tear out from your eyes
With a thought to stiffen brooding lines
And I'll only watch you leave me further behind
(Repeat Chorus)
Sing blue silver
With your beating heart
Written by: Andy Taylor, John Taylor, Nick Rhodes, Roger Taylor, Simon Le Bon
