See the rivers

filled with rain

I wish it could

be blue again

Hazy petrol nights

Crimson sun

on traffic lights

A perfect day

a perfect night

Tell me all those

perfect lies

And lie back in

the garden

till it's light

Streets are full up

every night

With people buzzing

round the lights

And waving at the

taxis driving by

Now tomorrow's

here today

And yesterday's

todays just

fade away

Watch the morning

chase the night

Rolling home,

it's getting light

Feeling sleepy,

full of wine

Fall in bed,

just in time

The perfect stare

of perfect eyes

That kiss you as

they tell you lies

And wonder where

you're going,

where've you been

In towers high

with time to fill

Gardens on

your window sill

In between the

pavement and

the sky

Now tomorrow's

here today

And yesterday's

todays just

fade away

Tell me why

all the words will

never come out right

Fumbling blind,

I've been driving

through the

danger signs

A perfect day

a perfect night

Tell me all those

perfect lies

And lie back in the

garden till it's light

Perfect silence

me and you

It's really me,

I really do

Remember every

moment magnified

Now tomorrow's

here today

And yesterday's

todays just

fade away

Tell me why

all the words will

never come out right

Fumbling blind,

I've been driving

through the

danger signs
