Simple Minds — Woman

Spirit of the girl I know's in front of me I brought her home, it's where she'd want to be Picture of some strange tattooed bird on her thigh Shine on, walk on, take a walk with me Something going, I can tell The way you know it's meant to be There's something taking all your life You're drifting far away from me Spirit of the one I know walks in the room It gets so hard and it's all too soon Lover's lonely planet, blue smoke in your eyes Shine on, get home, when are you gonna rise? Shook my life You don't live here any more, shine on, Mercury Walking through the sunlight to the old courtyard Where the weather's warm, where the air tastes sweet In a world where words can't say what's in her eyes She will epitomize, so let her rest in peace Something's going I can tell The way you know it's meant to be Something taking all your life And you're drifting far away from me Something I can tell you Mercury Something I can tell you Really want to tell you, I'd really love to tell you
