lyrics

You make me out to be a fool
Throwing your wine from the window at me on the fence
Your jealous mind is nothing new
Emerald eyes of a lover but we're only friends

Walking through the trees
Drinking yourself into a smeared eye sky
Falling on your knees, I know you....

Yes you were born to be on stage
Crying your tears to the gallery, lost in it all
You turn from sorrow into rage
thundering lies on the moments you claim to recall

Walking through the trees
Drinking yourself into a smeared eye sky
Falling on your knees, I know you

Make up runs on & on & on into a grand design
A fable runs on & on & on into a pantomime
Screaming out "No-one understands" into the fading light
Night comes & still you make me out to be a fool..

Walking through the trees
Drinking yourself into a smeared eye sky
Falling on your knees, I know you

Very classy classic pop/rock in the vein of Big Star n 70s FM radio..Excellent, naturally soulful melodic songwriting..Brimful of happy/sad ,resonant hooks..Both tracks here are very cool indeed Steve Ison
