Gazpacho

歌詞

(Music: Marillion Lyrics: Steve Hogarth & John Helmer) Saw you walking on your velvet lawn Is it lonely on the moon? You took a dive and swallowed all you could Did you drink too much too soon? Nothing left for you to fight about And no-one wants to see you try The nearest neighbours are a mile away Does the ocean hear you cry? Punching at the sky They say the King is losin' his grip again They said you're bullet proof, they said you feel no pain It seems the hero is misunderstood again Is it love or is it surgery Makes he seem so ill at ease As she's begging you to please calm down In her silk Armani on her knees Did you carry out those threats I heard Or were you only playing macho? And the stains on her Versace scarf Were they really just Gazpacho? They say the King is watching his back again They say the King is losing his grip again Raging like a bull to an empty ring D'you think they will forgive a hero anything? Now the ring is just a band of gold And your wife needs police protection While you're sparring with the journalists You're trying to win back her affection Is this what it means to be a man boxing up all your emotion So now she's gone and you're alone at last You can tell it to the ocean They say the King is losing his grip again They say the King is countin' his numbered days You never lost a fight in your whole life You never had no trouble sleepin' through the night The bottle and the doctor get you through the day The boys who run the house'll make it all OK You think they will forgive a hero anything Maybe Hollywood... but maybe then again... Now the ring is just a band of gold... Drive the road...
