Erasure • Lyrics
Storm Chaser
I'm just saying I want my mummy back
Lost her to the drink but her soul's intact
Mama said to me be proud of who you are
She saw Jesus in the eyes of a broken man
Sail away I am learning my lesson
Mama sends her love and Godspeed you come home
One little white lie
Was enough to conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for her life
Then I stole away woah like a thief in the night
I'm just saying not behind daddy's back
He takes care of her in his overtime
He's no saint I know as he goes around the town
Watch him cry himself to sleep, he's my daddy
Sail away, I will go it alone now
Leave my past behind to seek fortune and fame
One little white lie
Was enough to conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for her life
Then I stole away woah like a thief in the night
Sail away, there's a storm in a teacup
Mama sends her love and Godspeed you come home
One little white lie
Was enough to conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for her life
Then I stole away woah like a thief in the night
One little white lie
Was enough to conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away like a prodigal son
And wished her the best for her life
Then I stole away woah like a thief in the night
I'm a sucker for love, all that's artificial
Sometimes below, the belt I hit you
For without love, hell freezes over
And wherever you go searching know I'll want some
Give me back my calling cards and vices
My dignity and romance novels too
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
If you wanna know the truth
I'm feeling open ended
For without love, I'm not tremendous
The world we share, it's not pretending
And whenever you go AWOL know I'll be there
Give me back the photographs I sent you
My residence and cool emotion too
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
You gotta ride ride ride ride ride
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
The love we have is for the better now
Like a bubble that's floating on high above
I won't break down, I won't cry
But the colours are melting, I am fragile
I've been acting so coldly
And hope some day that you will forgive me
You are the one that knows me for who I really am
It'll all be gone in the morning we are lucky
Owe it all to fortune
Golden heart, tears of love
Shining will glow
There's a light at the end there of this tunnel
I am crawling slowly, I am small
What's been up with me lately
Hardly know me whose that in the mirror?
You are the one that knows my moods of joy and anger
Though you've been coping and lonely we are lucky
Owe it all to fortune
Golden heart, tears of love
Shining will glow
Golden heart, tears of love
Shining will glow
Golden heart, tears of love
Shining will glow
I stopped depending on you baby
I've been working 'til the early hours
Rapped my fingers to the bone, yeah
Rapped my brain until it hurts me baby
And I get down on my knees and declare my love
And it's so cold outside, and I need your warmth
I see your light on baby
Sure didn't mean to make you cry
I've been under pressure lately
And ooh I know, it's gonna be all right
I and know that you've be praying
Save it for a rainy day now baby
I've been working at the station
Didn't know that you were waiting baby
And the early bird didn't get the worm
I see your light on baby
Sure didn't mean to make you cry
I've been under pressure lately
And I'll prove you wrong, it's gonna be all right
And I get down on one knee and declare my love, for you
And it's so cold outside, and I need your warmth, I do
I see your light on baby
Sure didn't mean to make you cry
I've been under pressure lately
And ooh I know, it's gonna be all right
I see your light on baby
Sure didn't mean to make you cry
I've been under pressure lately
And I'll prove you wrong, it's gonna be all right
What a situation
Senses gone and left me
Lies are like confetti on the floor
Words are leading nowhere delicate and tender
Tenterhooks that drive me to despair
Storms are blowing winds are calling to me
Be my escape, my reward
It is you I adore see me through
Where there are demons I see angels passing by
The morning after nights before I have tried
When a lover leaves you
Cuts you without knowing
The world just falls apart beneath you feet
Talk is cheap and useless nothing but excuses
Lies are like confetti in my hands
Storms are blowing winds are calling to me
Be my escape, my reward
It is you I adore see me through
When there are demons I see angels passing by
The morning after nights before I have tried
Be my escape, my reward
It is you I adore see me through
Where there are demons I see angels passing by
The morning after nights before I have tried
Where there are demons I see angels passing by
The morning after nights before I have tried
Where there are demons I see angels passing by
The morning after nights before I have tried
Come on angel you're in danger
Give me a sign now show me the way
We gotta do it now
Oh we gotta do it now
Come on angel times are strange
And I need a life and you are the one
Who can show me how
Umm we got do it now
Ooh and the light that you're sending me down
In the name of falling shadow-land our love is real
And ooh when you're deep inside
You can persuade me love
Our love is real, hold me now
Come on angel you're in danger
Give me a sign now show me the way
We gotta do it now
Oh we gotta do it now
Ooh by the time that you're landing alone
And you're losing control
Where you lay your love, you lay your love
And ooh when you're deep inside
You can persuade me love
Show me how, show me how, show me how
We gotta reach for the stars we gotta reach for the love
We gotta reach for it all we gotta reach
Talk with me, walk with me, play with me, stay with me angel
Ooh and the light that you're sending me down
In the name of falling shadow-land our love is real
And ooh when you're deep inside
You can persuade me love
Show me how, hold me now, hold me now
You've got to do it now
Talk with me, walk with me, play with me, stay with me angel
Talk with me, walk with me, play with me, stay with me angel
Talk with me, walk with me, play with me, stay with me angel
Talk with me, walk with me, play with me, stay with me angel
Talk with me, walk with me, play with me, stay with me angel
