John Cale - One Word lyrics

Nighttime is falling on the Louvre It's been a lazy afternoon We walk to the house, the air is clear The water's still moving in the pool You say the same One word, one sound thing again It makes the world go 'round One word, we fight You'll see you can't win We're in a game The same place but not the same spin Let it all fade away If it fades away, I don't mind We were miles away, we were miles away We were miles and miles away Remember this soil by Augustus John? These are the ones I found in Rome There are few things I keep for long When does your plane leave for Cologne? I recall the train One word I saw People danced again That's all it took to turn them around One world we're in Strange world, no sound We'll find the same thing The same things are everywhere around Never mind Never mind, you'll see With time we'll dance again If it all fades away Let it all fade dancing away All the sounds I heard on a summer night One word, I found And the quiet words we exchanged, I felt That's all it took to turn him around She was pulling back to emphasize She watched, he sighs I was falling into Mona Lisa's eyes He waits for a touch of her eyes And she turned, and she turned And then she turns away She was far away She won't let him touch her any more today She was miles away She was miles away She was so many miles away
