Stephen Duffy - A Vision Of Bliss lyrics

Can't make light of it I'm back in the thick of it I tried to escape from it And make a break from it Behind such lines Persists the voice of such a fool I've been running away From facing up to today I've made every mistake That I could possibly make A worn manila envelope Of past affairs The day before I met you I was in the sticks Hopelessly adrift and broked treated You offered me no heartaches in a Motel 6 I knew you had the bits to fix my pieces I've never been higher Never been higher than this You are a vision Of complete and utter bliss Our first communion Or is it last testament? Straight from the hymn sheets Prostrate on her sheets The heart has reasons Which reason cannot comprehend What dream was I following Whose line was I borrowing? I tried to postpone The chance of sleeping alone Well, you know what they say 'The strong silent types' Words are merely symbols and they cannot convey The feelings you inspire and dig out of me Here are some more echoes, only echoes of the truth I hope the light won't disappear so quickly . Maybe we could buy a home So I could get more pots and pans There's so much we could own But it would only serve As a distraction to our happiness
