Prefab Sprout

Tiffanys

Time is the healer, time was on my hands

The bus stopped at tiffany's

So I went to hear the band

I saw cinderella, then the curtain dropped

Time hung heavy on my hands but today

The clock just stopped

I heard the music saw those pictures on the wall

I fell in love with tiffany's I thought it said it all

Soothed by your saxophones I thought you'd understand

I'd love to sing my songs for you but I don't know if I can

Said don't know if I can, don't know if I can

Midnight is striking there's a pumpkin by the door

It's five o'clock and the streets are clear am I alone once more ?

I watched the dawn in an electric storm my compass blew haywire

There she stands with a slipper in her hand

And her eyes were the colour of fire

I saw you crying from that doorway for sometime

It's no use drying your eyes 'cos I see those tell tale signs

I saw you crying from that doorway for sometime

It's no use drying your eyes 'cos I see those tell tale signs

I see those tell tale signs, I see those tell tale signs

Time is no healer in truth she plays no part

When money's got you in your pocket where can she put your heart ?

She led a charmed life so I believe

Before she left she wrote a note and this is how it reads

I saw you crying from that doorway for sometime

It's no use drying your eyes 'cos I see those tell tale signs

I saw you crying from that doorway for sometime

It's no use drying your eyes 'cos I see those tell tale signs

I see those tell tale signs, I see those tell tale signs
