Lyrics

Santa Monica In Santa Monica, in the winter time The lazy streets so undemanding I walk into the crowd In Santa Monica, you get your coffee from The coolest places on the promenade Where people dress just so Beauty so unavoidable, everywhere you turn it's there I sit and wonder what am I doing here? But on the telephone line I am anyone I am anything I want to be I could be a supermodel or Norman Mailer And you wouldn't know the difference Or would you? In Santa Monica all the people got modern names Like Jake or Mandy And modern bodies too In Santa Monica, on the boulevard You have to dodge those in-line skaters Or they'll knock you down I never felt so lonely Never felt so out of place I never wanted something more than this But on the telephone line I am anyone I am anything I want to be I could be a supermodel or Norman Mailer And you wouldn't know the difference On the telephone line I am any height I am any age I want to be I could be a caped crusader, or space invader And you wouldn't know the difference Or would you?

Mine I wait in the darkness Frozen winds surround my face In the cover of Darkness I can make believe it's you I feel you like the rain, I feel you like a storm cloud Building in my heart I wonder if you know the pain To want the one thing that you haven't got Chorus Just a twist in time And you could be mine Just a sip of wine And you could be mine Just a kiss divine A hand brushes by my love A smile fuels a steel inferno You don't have to die to leave my world Stand still and you've departed It seems i'm not on you're mind And i'm wasting my time I'm just a fool to believe In the death of the night Can you feel me inside I wish that you could conceive (Chorus) Won't you leave me in the darkness Take away the pride and the dignity thats burning inside Can't you see i'm satnding naked I'll bear all the crosses and the crucifixes You can provide You could decide (Chorus)-Repeat to fade
