《Surface Of The Moon》歌词

[00:00:00] Surface Of The Moon - Del Amitri

[00:00:00] Written by：Justin Currie

[00:00:34] Snow in a soulless city covers up

[00:00:39] The cracks in the road

[00:00:42] As a wastrel buys her cigarettes

[00:00:46] And wipes her pretty nose

[00:00:50] Like a part-time Elvis imitator

[00:00:55] These streets I knew so well

[00:00:58] Have been pasted beyond recognition

[00:01:03] With a temporary smell

[00:01:07] Now the midnight train eases

[00:01:10] Out leaving everyone marooned

[00:01:17] And without her it might

[00:01:20] As well be the surface of the moon

[00:01:39] From the well-swept streets of

[00:01:41] Jackson Heights to the dockside drudgery

[00:01:48] Everything's now a replica of

[00:01:52] What it used to be

[00:01:55] But since they tarted up the trenches

[00:01:59] And painted the bridges blue

[00:02:04] It seems less like a home to me than

[00:02:08] Just a place they bury you

[00:02:11] Now we're lit up like a cathedral in

[00:02:16] Our frozen concrete ruin

[00:02:22] And without her it might

[00:02:25] As well be the surface of the moon

[00:02:32] So I need her and I love her that is true

[00:02:40] But I'm stuck here like some

[00:02:42] Shipwreck still holding on to you

[00:02:48] When they beat out the tramps

[00:02:51] And patch up the slums

[00:02:53] Everything will be fine

[00:02:56] There'll be a new facade for us to hide behind

[00:03:17] So on the ancient trails of our coupling

[00:03:21] In the places we used to meet

[00:03:25] I am amazed by the lack of memories

[00:03:29] That I thought would flood through me

[00:03:33] And the riverside

[00:03:35] Where we first kissed has now been reduced

[00:03:41] To a phoney old world market

[00:03:45] Where only shoppers get seduced

[00:03:49] Now your arms embrace me strangely

[00:03:53] In your unfamiliar room

[00:04:00] And for all I care it might

[00:04:02] As well be the surface of the moon

[00:04:08] Yeah for all I care it might

[00:04:11] As well be the surface of the moon
