Distant Smile Lyrics

Sometimes I find I drift away

Behind a distant smile

Light years ago I think someone spoke

Quizzical glances behind cigarette smoke

She drew the curtains at the end of the day

And then we laughed because the room sailed away

Fancy glitter in the summer arcades

Then autumn leaves fall by a winter lane

Piano echoes and the perfume still lingers

But you fell through my fingers like sand

With a distant smile

A distant smile, a distant smile

Somehow I always seem to be

Adrift in other times with a distant smileUltravox - Distant Smile - http://motolyrics.com/ultravox/distant-smile-lyrics.html

[Incomprehensible] the sound of the streets

The city's glittering like diamonds in heat

Our secret destination, touch down in the haze

As the cameraman pans away

Hey, look, it's a long, lost horizon

Private oceans you can surface a sunrise in

Hearts well [Incomprehensible] dodging logic

But nevertheless still permanently surprised

Behind a distant smile

A distant smile, a distant smile

Somehow I always seem to be

Adrift in other times behind a distant smile
