Temperature Drop

(album: Heads And Hearts - 1985)

Landing in
An open sea
Coming down through the atmosphere
You're the one I need
Does it make no sense
As the words sink in
You want more
But there's nothing more than this for me

And the same way I feel it when it starts
So I know when it stops
And I only want to live by the heart
I'll tell you when the temperature drops

It can fall so fast
Like a guillotine
The head is bowed
The neck is clear
But will the cut be clean?
Running down the scale
From red to blue
Dreams are lost
Fire turns to frost as it dawns to you

That the same way I feel it when it starts
So I know when it stops
And I only want to live by the heart
I'll tell you when the temperature drops

The same way I feel it when it starts
So I know when it stops
And I only want to live by the heart
I'll tell you when the temperature drops
