he'd just finished his last glass when he saw the girl
long long legs scarlet dress unreliable curls
she was made for his eyes;
she got nothing else to give the world
cause it's a hungry universe waiting for her
there's no escape from eyes
why don't you smile?
I'm here for you
you're mine
you're mine...
and we lie in our beds looking out at the dark
balconies, cigarettes- unreliable stars
they stare out from the bus stops
from the magazines and the storefronts
from strangers' faces- they're waiting
we fall asleep to eyes
why don't you smile?
I'm here for you
you're mine...
you're mine!
and we welcome you to the world, little Storm
we've got great plans for you
so precisely devised long before you were born
and we will find you; we'll define you
we will make you our own...
from the first time that you set foot outside
we won't give you
no escape from eyes
why don't you smile?
I'm here for you...
you're mine
you're mine...
you're mine.
