Distant Smile Lyrics

[Intro]
Sometimes I find I drift away
Behind a distant smile

[Verse 1]
Light years ago I think someone spoke
Quizzical glances behind cigarette smoke
She drew the curtains at the end of the day
And then we laughed because the room sailed away

[Verse 2]
Fancy glitter in the summer arcades
Then autumn leaves fall by a winter lane
Piano echoes and the perfume still lingers
But you fell through my fingers like sand

[Chorus]
With a distant smile
A distant smile
A distant smile
Somehow I always seem to be
Adrift in other times with a distant smile

[Verse 3]
Hey copper, put the sound on the streets
The city's glittering like diamonds in heat
Our secret destination, touch down in the haze
As the cameraman pans away

[Verse 4]
Hey look, it's a long lost horizon
Private oceans you can surface a sunrise in
Hearts well vandaled dodging logic
But nevertheless still permanently surprised

[Chorus]
Behind a distant smile
A distant smile
A distant smile
Somehow I always seem to be
Adrift in other times behind a distant smile
