Nick Launay - Wide Lovely Eyes lyrics

[Verse 1] You wave at the sky with wide lovely eyes Waves and waves of love goodbye Through the garden with your secret key Down the tunnel that leads to the sea Step on the beach beneath the iron skies You wave and wave with your wide lovely eyes Crystal waves and waves of love You wave and say goodbye [Verse 2] Your dress sighs with your wide lovely strides All along the street and lately the stories abound They've dismantled the funfair And they've shut down the rides They've hung the mermaids from the streetlights By their hair And with wide lovely eyes you wave at the sky And near the high window watching you ride The waves of blue and the waves of love You wave and say goodbye [Verse 3] The night expands, I am expanding I watch your hands like bu*terflies landing All among the myths and the legends we create And all the laughing stories we tell our friends Close the windows, clear up the mess It's getting late It's darker and closer to the end Through the tunnel and down the sea And on the pebbled beach your laces you untie And arrange your shoes side by side You wave and wave with wide lovely eyes Distant waves and waves of distant love You wave and say goodbye
