Erasure • Lyrics
Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me)
You've done it all, you've broken every code
And pulled the rebel to the floor
You've spoilt the game, no matter what you say
For only metal, what a bore
Blue eyes, blue eyes
How come you tell so many lies?
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
There's nothing left, all gone and run away
Maybe you'll tarry for a while
It's just a test, a game for us to play
Win or lose, it's hard to smile
Resist, resist
It's from yourself you've got to hide
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
There ain't no more, you've taken everything
From my believe in Mother Earth
Can you ignore my faith in everything
'Cause I know what faith is and what it's worth
Away, away
And don't say maybe you'll try
To come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
Ooh la la la
Ooh la la la aah
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
Oh l'amour
Broke my heart and now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love supposed to do?
Looking for you,you were looking for me
Always reaching for you, you were too blind to see
Oh love of my heart why leave me alone?
I'm falling apart, no good on my own
Oh l'amour
Broke my heart and now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love supposed to do?
Why throw it away? Why walk out on me?
I just live for the day, for the way it should be
There once was a time I had you here by my side
You said I wasn't your kind, only here for the ride
Oh l'amour
Broke my heart and now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love supposed to do?
No emotional ties, you don't remember my name
I lay down and die, I'm only to blame
Oh love of my heart, it's up to you now
You tore me apart, I hurt inside-out
Oh l'amour
Broke my heart and now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love supposed to do?
I want him and I need him
And someday, someway, woah oh oh oh
I'll meet him
He'll be kind of shy and real good looking too
And I'll be certain he's my guy
By the things he'll like to do
Like walking in the rain
And wishing on the stars up above
And being so in love
When he's near me I'll kiss him
And when he leaves me woah oh oh oh
I'll miss him
Though sometimes we'll fight
I won't really care, I know it's gonna be all right
'Cause we've got so much to share
Like walking in the rain
And wishing on the stars up above
And being so in love
Jonny, no he'll never do
Harvey, no, it isn't him, too
They would never, no they'd never, never, ever love
Walking in the rain
Wishing on the stars up above
Being so in love
Wo-ah, where can he be?
Wo-ah, i'm still wishing
Wo-ah, where can he be?
Wo-ah
When will I see you again?
When will we share precious moments?
Will I have to wait forever?
Will I have to suffer and cry the whole night through?
When will I see you again?
When will our hearts beat together?
Are we in love or just friends?
Is this my beginning or is this the end?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
Are we in love or just friends?
Is this my beginning or is this the end?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
Wise men say, only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay? Would it be a sin?
If I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time stood still
Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing stretching every nerve
Had to listen had no choice
I did not believe the information
Just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom boom boom
'Son' he said 'Grab your things, I've come to take you home'
To keepin' silence I resigned
My friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would soon be shut
So I went from day to day
Although my life was in a rut
'Till I thought of what I'd say
Which connection I should cut
I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom boom boom
'Hey' he said 'Grab your things, I've come to take you home'
When illusion spin her net
I'm never where I wanna be
And liberty she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouettes
Who close their eyes but still can see
No one taught them etiquette
I will show another me
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom boom boom
'Hey' I said 'You can keep my things, they've come to take me home'
