๐ Lyrics
You had your grand illusion
And wrestled with your fate
The winter of your discontent
Came twenty years too late
If it was love, and I was there
I've forgotten where it lives
We both stepped off a frozen rock
Onto a burning bridge
You came like an invasion
All bells and whistles blowing
Reaping the rewards
Of the fable you'd been sowing
I saw you cross the landing
Descending marble stairs
Like Caesar crossed the Rubicon
You seemed to walk on air
And yeah I've seen your movie
And I read it in your book
The truth just flew off every page
Your songs have all the hooks
You're seven wonders rolled in one
You've shifted gears to cruise
Oh you came to town in headlines
And eight hundred dollar shoes
Oh the bellboys are crying
And monies changing hands
Your cloak and dagger legacies
Gone home to No Man's Land
The marquee lights are flickering
Your posters fading fast
Your being here just melts away
Like ice cubes in a glass
And yeah I've seen your movie
And I read it in your book
The truth just flew off every page
Your songs have all the hooks
You're seven wonders rolled in one
You've shifted gears to cruise
Oh you came to town in headlnes
And eight hundred dollar shoes
Oh you came to town in headlines
And eight hundred dollar shoes
And wrestled with your fate
The winter of your discontent
Came twenty years too late
If it was love, and I was there
I've forgotten where it lives
We both stepped off a frozen rock
Onto a burning bridge
You came like an invasion
All bells and whistles blowing
Reaping the rewards
Of the fable you'd been sowing
I saw you cross the landing
Descending marble stairs
Like Caesar crossed the Rubicon
You seemed to walk on air
And yeah I've seen your movie
And I read it in your book
The truth just flew off every page
Your songs have all the hooks
You're seven wonders rolled in one
You've shifted gears to cruise
Oh you came to town in headlines
And eight hundred dollar shoes
Oh the bellboys are crying
And monies changing hands
Your cloak and dagger legacies
Gone home to No Man's Land
The marquee lights are flickering
Your posters fading fast
Your being here just melts away
Like ice cubes in a glass
And yeah I've seen your movie
And I read it in your book
The truth just flew off every page
Your songs have all the hooks
You're seven wonders rolled in one
You've shifted gears to cruise
Oh you came to town in headlnes
And eight hundred dollar shoes
Oh you came to town in headlines
And eight hundred dollar shoes
