LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: IS LOVE/WHITE LIES
She stares into the mirror
Youth fading with the sun
The hollows in her face
Like wishing wells
Scarlet as a papercut
And jewelled as the Orion
She'd never worn that jewellery as a girl
She says the only thing I've ever found
That's greater than it always sounds is love
She says the only thing I've ever found
That's greater than it always sounds is love
He stares into the river
Heart falling to the drift
An argument of cars
Moving full steam behind
Blood-shot as a baby
And sulking like a valley
Fishing in reflections
Killing time
She says the only thing I've ever found
That's greater than it always sounds is love
She says the only thing I've ever found
That's greater than it always sounds is love
It's the bath that's getting cold while you're frozen to your bed
The milk that's going rancid on the table
The panic in the evening
The photos in the dustbin
The pointless items we forgot to label
It's the perfume on her wrist
That stinks of easy birthdays
The spare keys like asbestos on the side
It's the cross around his neck
For luck and not for honour
Like diamond over knuckle on a newly married bride
She says the only thing I've ever found
That's greater than it always sounds is love
He says the only thing I've ever found
That's greater than it always sounds is love
I know the only thing I've ever found
That's greater than it always sounds is love
I know the only thing I've ever found
That's greater than it always sounds is love
