A letter to elise (play out vers.) de The Cure

Elise, it doesn't matter what you say
you know i'll stay here every yesterday
like keep on acting out the same
the way we act out
every way to smile
forget
and make believe we never needed
any more than this
any more than this
Elise it doesn't matter what you do
you know i'll never really get inside of you
to make your eyes catch fire the way they should
to (may?) the blue will pull me in
if they only would
if they only would
at least i'd lose this sense of sensing
something else that hides away
from me and you this world's to part
with aching moves
and breaking hearts
and all the smiles your hands can take
but i can take as much as you can throw
and then throw it all away
oh i'll throw it all away
like throwing faces as the sky
like throwing arms round yesterday
i stood and stared like stone in front of you
and the way i stared it seemed i looked right out of you
and even the way i stand
i stand away from you
elise believe me take me away from this
and secretly we'll slip into all our promises
away from it all in the cover of the night again
and we'll watch the years fall
and we'll dream it all back like we do
Elise it doesn't matter what you say
you know i'll stay here every yesterday
like keep on acting out the same the way
we act out
every way to smile
forget and make believe we never needed any more than this
any more than this
As fast as i pick it up
it falls away through my clutching hands
as fast as i pick it up
it falls away like falling sand
but there's nothing else i can really do
there's nothing else i can really do
there's nothing else i can really do at
