The Cure - A Few Hours After lyrics

The Cure - A Few Hours After lirics


the look before i go
is the look for you
you only have to look and it will all come true
and we can fall outside
into the fizzy night
or pull me down in here
you know it's all the same
i only want to see if you are happy again
or we can roll around
and find out upside down

a few hours after this and we're apart again
like two white checks
like opposite poles
in a secret game
(like nothing like these i suppose... )
i really should have known by the cut of your smile
that the answer would be simple
it still took you a while to get it out of me
i thought you'd do it easily

just put your hands around my heart
and squeeze me until i'm dry
i never thought you'd ever start to ever ask me why...

i never saw you again

The Cure - 2 Late lyrics

The Cure - 2 Late lirics


so i'll wait for you
where i always wait
behind the signs that sell the news
i'll watch for you like yesterday
and hope for you
one day that once
spent out on me
and up 'til late
i search for you
your hat pushed straight
away from me
your measured step
heads up you win
always too late

oh if i could just once catch your eye
invisible against the words
that hold you down in solitude
and never let you go
the way that every time
my eyes just close
like lids of wooden men in file
i put you under rainy day
your hat's all off
and i'm gone away...

so i'll wait for you
where i always wait
behind the signs that sell the news
and i'll watch for you like yesterday
and hope for you
one day that once
spent out on me
and up 'til late
i search for you
your hat pushed straight
away from me
your measured step
heads up you win
always too late
