Phenomenal World lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Phenomenal World lyrics Words and music by Roddy Frame Born on a junk heap in the sea Cursed with the notion to be free White and bright and twenty one But in my heart I m on the run I kissed the lips of eau de vie I tasted sugar and debris But in the early morning light I saw the day destroy the night Life is a long walk home Chorus: Was it the moonlight That left you gasping Grasping, something, beyond a boy or a girl Just let it all blow Untie your heartstrings No, don t cling to this phenomenal world I lost my senses in the spring Of someone s life that I left behind And though I search through everything A sense of loss is all I find Her face is every work of art She haunts the city high and low But I can t live inside her heart And so I had to let it go And make my heart my home Chorus song lyrics
