Your Face
When the lights go out do you knowIs she smiling is she cryingWhen the lights go out do you knowIs she smiling is she cryingBut you can't know because you can't see her faceAnd you can't say...
YOUR FACE ties my shoes and knits my mittensYour face, your face, your faceTies my shoes, Ties my shoesAnd knits my mittens
As your name fades from my handsAnd your face from my eyesAs your name fades from my handsAnd your face from my eyesMake up the features of your faceAnd the sound of your voiceSo I could say
YOUR FACE ties my shoes and knits my mittensYour face, your face, your faceTies my shoes, Ties my shoesAnd knits my mittens
As the letters wash awayAs the final letters fadeAs the letters wash awayAs the final letters fadeI think if I say your name out loudIt'll bring back your faceSo I can say...
Your face, your face, your faceYour face your face, YOUR FACETies my shoes, Ties my shoesAnd knits my mittens
