Love And Little White Lies

This is a favorite song from one of my favorite singers...ever. Behold the glory of Marc Almond. Such a gorgeous voice, such amazing lyrics.


(All night, can't you feel my heart?)
Every day I watch my mirror
Getting a little older, wiser, sadder with the years

Missed chances
Forgotten romances
Starting now to loosen with the tears

I could fall in love
Any time, any place, any where
But I spent last night
Treading on valentines
Treading on valentines

You know it didn't mean a thing
I didn't give it give two damns
You know I thought I'd never fall in love
It only worked in films

Response, responsibilities, bravery, hardship
Giving up and giving too

Here's little things I think I mean
Some consequence to you

I'll never get the chance again
Faces heartbreakingly wonderful
All flash by me
Steaming neons in the rain
Diamonds down the memory drain

But you inspire me, fuel and fire me
Never leave me
Or deceive me
We could sit out winter evenings
Laughing over love and little white lies
Sit out winter evenings
Laughing over love and little white lies

Bitter coffee
Stomach aching
Pass the time while our hearts are breaking
I've got faith in you
So don't lose have faith in me

Misty mornings
Damp in sorrow
Love me just the same tomorrow
Something blue and something borrowed
And a bruise inside of me

I'm drunk on your delivery
Intoxicated by your eyes
Got to find an antidote
Before we say goodbye
Car wrecks and romantic moons
With you and I the stars
We're somewhere in a midnight movie
Somewhere off afar

There's no ice cream in the interlude
No sweets or cigarettes
Just you and I
And a cast of thousands
Trying to forget
We could sit singing songs for suckers
Blacked out with hymns of pain and sorrow
Oh kiss me once before you go
I may be dust tomorrow

Every day I watch my mirror
Getting a little older, wiser, sadder with the years
Missed chances
Forgotten romances
Starting now to loosen with the tears
My heart is pulsing brilliant red
And you know red's a colour for sin and danger
Ready now to take my chance
With any handy stranger

People will always
Love and love and love and love and love
But what the hell
We fool each other
When we've suffered through enough

But you inspire me
Fuel and fire me
Never leave me
Or deceive me
We could sit out winter evenings
Laughing over love and little white lies
Sit out winter evenings
Laughing over love and little white lies

Oh can't you feel my heart
Can't you feel my heart
