| The Girl of the Year |
| (Stephen Duffy) |
She's the girl Of the year Of course
Looking down Like she's On a horse
She rubs the world out Of her eyes. Votive candles Where she lies
That was last year In the meantime She has done a lot too quickly
What a lovely feeling Now her heart's beating
Now now that the past is gone Carry on, carry on There's a moon behind the clouds Carry on, carry on
She closed the book On her Plaster saints All the old ways And constraints
She can't believe That she Was so blind Now she walks if they Send a car
I suppose she was frightened Under jasmine She doesn't seem so anxious
What a lovely feeling Now her heart's beating
Now now that the past is gone, Carry on, carry on. There's a moon behind the clouds, Carry on, carry on.
Lullabyes For those a-sleeping. The words you say She can't hear
I can't breathe Heartfelt thank yous. Serenade Her dreams.
What a lovely feeling, To feel her heart beating.
Now now that the past is gone Carry on, carry on There's a moon behind the clouds Carry on, (she didn't know she could do anything) carry on
Now now that the past is gone Carry on, (she didn't know she could love everyone) carry on Silver moon behind the clouds Carry on, (she didn't know she could do everything) carry on Now now that the past is gone Carry on, (she didn't know she could love anyone) carry on There's a moon behind the clouds Carry on, (she didn't know she could do anything) carry on
