David J - Justine lyrics

Justine Justine Phantom of the trail I cast you as the love interest An unwitting portrayal If fate decrees reunion Then how, where and when A part of me was lost to you For me to find again I'm riding on the back of luck Luck's an empty shirt Lost my ring in a handshake Those sharks know how to hurt I hit the bottle The bottle hit back hard I played the joker You played the winning card Justine On a bus or on a train The heart rules the head Leads me down a winding lane I lost a dream in London Town In Holland Park Tears and a paper crown Justine Justine I call you Justine Sometimes you're in the country MOstly in the town On the Up-Escalator as I am going down I never catch your name So you're always called Justine Always longed for fleeting beauty often seen You are omnipresent London, Paris, Rome And in a way Transience is your home So it's a fond farewell Maybe never more On that sad independence day I'll knock on wood and it will be your door
