Lyrics Lisa Stansfield

Lisa Stansfield

A Boy You Have Known

This song is for listening to

On nights you're all alone

Blank face at the window pane

Or a silent telephone

And it's all about a boy you have known

With black hair or brown hair

And hands made of stone

He had eyes like the deeps in the sky

Hair like the clouds you've seen floating by

And my sky was your cloud

You made the first smile I had ever worn

And it's all about a boy you have known

With black hair or brown hair

And hands made of stone

Do you wonder if he knows now

Of the pain behind your eyes

The scorching in your throat

Or the half ' forgotten ' sighs

Do you try hard to sleep

And feel old memories

Creeping to the dark folds of night

Your glance and made me dance

The first dance I had ever seen

And it's all about a boy you have known

With black hair or brown hair

And hands made of stone
