Şarkı sözleri

When I saw you on the market
Standing by the phone
With your hair as dark as this
How could you be alone?
All the ghosts in love with you
They crane their sorry necks
Like a Viennese machine
That's just discovered sex
When I saw you on the bridge
You had to look away
If I thought to follow you
I'd just get in your way
Reaching for eternity
Reaching for a chair
Reaching for the woman
Who is never even there
Boys
Never even there
When I saw your fingers folded
Round your albatross
Staring through the kitchen wall
At everything you've lost
Losing comes so easily
When you acquire the taste
Life is long and life is lost
And life is such a waste
Boys
Life is just a waste
See the wrinkles in my hand
I am the lizard's son
Waiting for the alchemist
To touch me with the sun
When I saw your photograph
I knew we'd never meet
You were called Idonia
And I stayed in the street
Boys
I stayed in the street
When I saw your eyes were closed
That was the best thing yet
Then you drove a caravan
Across this flimsy set
Crushed beneath your wheels
Still my heart goes beating on
Beating for Idonia
And everything she's done
Boys
Everything she's done
When I saw your pharaoh coming
Handsome gypsy lad
With his memory still wet
From all the fun he had
Funny how your ceiling
Is somebody else's floor
Feeling for Idonia
Beside a market stall
Boys
Who won't be back no more
