Howard Jones - 80s
You can look at the menu, but you just can't eat |
You can feel-the-cushion, but you can't have a seat |
You-can-dip-your-foot-in-the po-ool, but you can't have a swim |
You can feel the punishment, but you can't commit the sin |
|
You can build a mansion, but you just can't live in it |
You're the fastest runner, but you're not allowed to win |
Some-break-the-rules, and live-to-count-the cost |
The insecurity is the thing that won't get lost |
|
You can see the summit but you can't reach it |
It's the last piece of the puzzle but you just can't make it fit |
Doctor-says-you're cured but you still feel the pain |
Aspirations in the clouds but your hopes go down the drain |
|
