CLOSER THAN SKIN（デビッド・クロス・バンド）収録の歌詞

I Buy Silence
You turn to memory
You need a sign
You search for harmony
In the armoury of time

I have your answer
My price is crystal clear
There is no fortune to pay

I buy silence
I sell words
Art and science
For your world

There is no mystery
I Can’t supply
No part of history
Or inventory of lies

Step in and look around
Don’t try to knock me down
No obligation today

I buy silence
I sell words
Art and science
For your world


Only Fooling
She was only joking, he was joking too
Not in all the talk was a single word true

Did she really need him? Did he really care?
Do we climb the mountains because they stand there?

He was undemanding, she was in demand
And their main concern was to come to no harm

He was so fulfilling, she was so fulfilled
If they shared a feast there would be no goose killed

Fooling-only fooling only fooling
Fooling-only fooling only fooling

What a Life of Riley! Little dogs did laugh!
What a Tale of Eskimo Nell and Falstaff!

Never for a moment did they disagree
Never would a child of their brains be born free

She was only joking, he was joking too
Not a lie was told that they could not see through

Did she really need him? Did he really care?
Can you take a brake on the road to nowhere?

Fooling-only fooling only fooling
Fooling-only fooling only fooling


Awful Love
She sang her song every day to me
Tuning my life

I do everything for love, anyway
I did everything I could and ran away
Now she’s calling me back home, far away
How can anyone believe in what we say?

Her siren song fills the air above
Clouding my eyes

Gone for a song, I am bound to her
Closer than skin

She does everything for love, anyway
She did everything she could and ran away
Now she’s calling me back home, far away
How can anyone believe in what we say?

It’s all for love, awful love
It’s all for love, awful love
It’s all for love, awful love
It’s all for love, awful love
