Cinderella Search Lyrics

    (derek dick, mark kelly, steve rothery, peter trewavas, ian mosley)

    On the rebound, fumbling all the lines
    The light at the end of the bottle - alcoholicalphabet
    Through the looking glass
    The proof in my own reflection
    Five senses down and reeling on the cinderella search

    On the rebound, fumbling all the lines
    Decay on the vertical hold with a horizontal aim
    Conversation needs translation
    Three dimensions down dissolving on the cinderella search
    Cinderella search

    On the rebound, fumbling all the lines
    Dreaming bartenders, bourbon and saxophone
    Out of luck, out of charm, out the game of rejections in a cigarette city
    Only courting the homing of direction on the cinderella search
    Cinderella search

    But the samaritan of the heartbroken, heartbroken
    Swam through the nicotine seize, and we exchanged the kiss of life
    Resurrection in a trance, the model, the grail, in a marquee of promises i touched the dream
    I hold the dream, i have the dream
    To end the cinderella search
    Cinderella search, oh no more, no more!

    Exposing bedside manners on a work extension
    Awaiting development with paranoid polaroid eyes
    Polaroid eyes

    The footman memorised the number
    But the prince still holds both the slippers
    And would you leave a palace for a bedsit
    And canterbury tales
    Canterbury tales?

    Maybe it was infatuation or the thrill of the chase
    Maybe you were always beyond my reach and my heart was playing safe
    But was that love in your eye i saw or the reflection of mine?
    I'll never really know for sure, you never really gave me time
    Give me time, won't you give me that time!

    Welcome back to the circus
    Welcome back to the circus
    Welcome back to the circus

    I always use the cue sheets but never the nets
    Always the cue sheets but never the nets
    Never the nets, never the nets, nevertheless, nevertheless, nevertheless, nevertheless, nevertheless

    Welcome back to the circus!
