Broken Mirror Songtext
von Tom Emlyn

There are two languages that can be heard
The sound of the sea
And the wind from the hills
She saw through you and she said
You′re looking ill
How long will you take this time?
You're right, I wasn′t there
But I've seen it before
Two velvet eyes Looking out through your door
Seductive as debt
And I can't forget
That I won′t repeat that mistake
Now the band is breaking up
And I′m still stuck out on the stage
Just waiting for an encore
But the curtain had fallen

And beauty is a curse
But ugliness is worse
And loneliness is always worse


I hitched to Bristol in December
Wished it was San Francisco
I fell for you, I'm still falling now
Got to get down somehow
Stone cold sober til the end of time
Nothing I want can ever be mine
Only a broken mirror can help me
See clearly now

And beauty is a curse
But ugliness is worse
And loneliness is well-rehearsed

And beauty is a curse
But ugliness is worse
And loneliness is always
