Grey Lantern Lyrics
Mansun
Look, frankly youre a star tonight
Standing under grey light when I left you
Youre watching from afar tonight
Youve just become a sight for sore eyes now, yeah
Oh, youve come off the juice
Youre sick of all this aural abuse, yeah
Hold the lantern, behold the lantern
Look, frankly youre a freak tonight
Youd stand under my light if I let you
Youre looking quite aloof tonight
Im feeling out of breath since I left you, oh yeah
Oh, freezing to touch you, stand in lantern light
Oh, touch you, beside you, its greyer than at night
