Aztec Camera - Phenomenal World lyrics

Words and music by roddy frame Born on a junk heap in the sea Cursed with the notion to be free White and bright and twenty one But in my heart i'm on the run I kissed the lips of eau de vie I tasted sugar and debris But in the early morning light I saw the day destroy the night Life is a long walk home Chorus: Was it the moonlight That left you gasping Grasping, something, beyond a boy or a girl Just let it all blow Untie your heartstrings No, don't cling to this phenomenal world I lost my senses in the spring Of someone's life that i left behind And though i search through everything A sense of loss is all i find Her face is every work of art She haunts the city high and low But i can't live inside her heart And so i had to let it go And make my heart my home Chorus
