Level 42 Lying Still
She came through the door 'round my place
She was not the same
I reached out my hand to touch her face
She turned her head away
Her words flew in empty circles
Reasons unexplained
I saw that her thoughts were somewhere else
We made love anyway
Lying still in your arms
And the tears came down
She cried
(Her pain)
And like the rain that draws
A cloud across the sun
The tears flow on, she cried
(The pain she felt inside)
As night touched the sky with moon glow
She opened up her heart
The tides of emotions ebb and flow
Washing us apart
We talked through the night in whispers
As the silent city lay
Reasons she gave cut deep and hard
The dawn broke angry gray, yeah
Lying still in your arms
Heartbeats cold
She cried
(My pain)
Like thunder rolling through
An aching winter sky
Heartbeats cold
(Her pain)
Lying still in your arms
But the tears came down
She cried
(My pain)
And like the rain that draws
A cloud across the sun
The tears flow on
She cried the pain I felt inside, yeah
The future dissolves in the tears
The morning surrenders the years
How can you say our love wasn't real
When I see how you feel
Another time, another place
I won't cry for her no more
The days go on but the nights are long
I'll remember her for sure
Still in your arms
Still in your arms
Still in your arms
