John Waite - The Glittering Prize lyrics

There's a silent movie Running off its reel inside my mind As i try to fall asleep tonight On prescription lullabyes In the darkness there's a doorway That leads me back to you forever But these days there's only You and i in photographs Ambitions and dreams we've shared Now i wonder who has got the last laugh Cause i know you're crying And you know i'm cold inside Got no expectations for my pride And i reach for that glittering prize I remember on our wedding day Looking back at you Our eyes met and we said goodbye As we both said "i do" Didn't i make a promise baby I would stand by you forever But sometimes the best-laid plans Flare up and blow away And fairytale logic comes Sweeps you heart Your soul'your world away Cause i know you're crying And you know i'm cold inside And i'm tired of living with that lie And now time is flying And you know i miss that fire But i feel for you I've got desire So i reach for that glittering prize No doll's house dreams Or valentines Just the future at the door Just leaving trains and empty rooms A broken band of gold Cause love don't live here anymore And some nights i'll come and see you And i know you'll let me in Two strangers in silence now Cause you know in love We could never win I know you're crying And you know i'm cold inside And i'm tired of living with this lie These days Cause now time is flying And you know i miss that fire Cause i feel for you I've got desire Baby baby In my world (in your world tonight) Reach for that glittering prize (in my world) That's all i ever seemed to do (in your world tonight) Was reach for the glittering prize (in my world) I lost myself when i lost you (in your world tonight) As i reached for that glittering prize (in my world) And i hope that all your dreams come true (in your world tonight) When you reach for that glittering prize (in my world) In your world In my world tonight
