The Chauffeur

(originally done by duran duran)


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 dew drops glisten freshing your side

The sun slips down bedding heavy blind
The front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the drowning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart

Sing blue silver

Way down the lane away living for another day
The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze
Swim seagull in the empty sky on towards that western isle
My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze

And watch as lovers part i feel you smiling
What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind
To tear out from your eyes with a word to stiffen brooding lies
But i'll only watch you leave me further behind
