Words and music by Roddy Frame
|
|
|
All the madness in the mirror,
|
The tremblin' and the tears.
|
It takes a long time comin' out,
|
It's comin' out of here.
|
I've been wandering your London town,
|
And it's wearin' out my shoes.
|
It's a long road comin' down,
|
Comin' down with the blues.
|
|
But when you hold me and really make love to me,
|
I know that love is true forgiveness.
|
Time on my mind is time spent with you,
|
But it's time that I can't find,
|
With the Notting Hill blues.
|
|
Lovers pass me on the gate,
|
Like distant cousings, removed,
|
Holding hands, it seems like an act of fate,
|
And I'm almost moved.
|
But love has left me standing still,
|
With no directions and no clues,
|
No speech to let my feelings loose.
|
A celebration of the blues.
|
|
But when you hold me and really make love to me,
|
I know that love is true forgiveness.
|
Out on the road I was down with the crew,
|
Now I'm all alone, on the run,
|
With the Notting Hill blues.
|
|
And it's a lonely, lonely time,
|
Sadness preys upon my mind,
|
A telephone and a bottle of booze,
|
But who do you call? when your tongue tied,
|
Up all night.
