Forever [live]

The Cure · Faith (Deluxe Re-Issue Disc 2) [2005]

[MOD NOTE: These lyrics are very rough.

Two years away so

Down in the same soul

I've had nothing but blackness

Penning inside your head

Making you're always going to be dead



No one's going to have fun

Yellow what I say

Afraid of your eyes you used to doubt

Just a picture, picture, picture

Then you come and whisper, saying

"Who's going to be next to you tomorrow?

Tomorrow?"



Feel just one day within your hand

You make me better

You make me better today

Try to say to your debt

Open up and try that again

Pull out everything was ??? today

Eventually is so exciting

But it's me who's saying

Who's going to caterpillar

And hey, ??? dance

And hey, take inside

Worried about the same thing

Good imitation

Watching the chair with the spider's going on

The music's so loud I could scream

And everyone says

She's such a fine body

Can you see her eyes, she knows she's real

Could you see my eyes from the right place

Make me safe from the ??? real

Make me safe from your kind of face

Taking it sideways from

This is so many hours

So many days

So many years

This is time

It's just this time

And you can believe anything

This is just repeating

Can't even sing

Not all the other men

Can't even sing



I could see you burst away

You just want to ???



(Thank you, good night)
