Lyrics

[Verse 1] Everythin' comes and goes Marked by lovers and styles of clothes Things that you held high and told yourself were true Lost or changin' as the days come down to you [Chorus] Down to you, constant stranger You're a kind person, you're a cold person too It's down to you [Bridge] You go down to the pick up station Cravin' warmth and beauty You settle for less than fascination A few drinks later you're not so choosy When the closing lights strip off the shadows On this strange new flesh you've found Clutching the night to you like a fig leaf, you hurry To the blackness and the blankets To lay down an impression and your loneliness [Verse 2] In the morning there are lovers in the street, they look so high You brush against a stranger and you both apologize Old friends seem indifferent, you must have brought that on Old bonds have broken down, love is gone Ooh, love is gone, written on your spirit, this sad song Love is gone [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Everythin' comes and goes Pleasure moves on too early and trouble leaves too slow Just when you're thinkin' you've finally got it made Bad news comes knockin' at your garden gate [Chorus] Knockin' for you, constant stranger You're a brute, you're an angel, you can crawl, you can fly too It's down to you It all comes down to you
