Marc Almond - Tears Run Rings

from 1988’s “The Stars We Are“ On heavenly rain, you fell into my life Unforgettable smile, unforgettable lies In the name of the cross or a banner of love With the hand of a friend or under a blanket of trust The angels sighed, a little girl cried The tears run rings around my eyes We’re going to set fire to the house in my heart We’re going to set fire to the whole damn world I don’t understand the wicked things we do In the name of the good, in the name of the few Don’t look at me with your innocent smile When the bed is burning around my head When a war breaks out, It’ll be no surprise Your unforgettable smile, your unforgettable lies And I’ve got to stop running to make my start We’ve got to get together before we fall apart They’re pulling down the old slums to build the new They’re bringing back the old rules to please the few Pull down the old slums to build the new Pull down the love I built with you Promise of tomorrow you never kept And you try to burn the house down when I slept The nation’s in disorder, there’s chaos in my heart We’ve got to get together before we fall apart
