Paroles
As he milked the applause Basking in the radiant glow Of a limelight that burned out some time ago To the dropping of jaws His familiar slipped his side Made her way to the wings And stepped down from the ride He didn't know which way to turn For she'd been with him from the start - And in her absence his careful demeanour And his well-structured schemes fell apart There's no comfort or safe haven to be found in the stormcloud night No friend for him now as he keeps holding tight to what might have been On another day he'd fix up his brave face so no-one knows The depth of the chill that's set into his bones, but it's only here That he knows for sure Thinking not to question why All the milk of human kindness has run dry Nobody told him when the floodtide was coming then It was suddenly over his head all too fast And he was swimming for his life through the jetsam of his past And all the driftwood of memory held in transitory, temporary measure None of that can buoy him up now in the bursting of his lungs In the blabbing of the tongue once so slick, once so proud Now he's counted out the time, he's fed out all the lines That once charmed the birds from the trees...
