A Letter to Elise (1990 Demo) - 2022 Remaster

Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you say
 I just can't stay here every yesterday
 Like keep on acting out the same
 The way we act out
 Every way to smile forget
 And make-believe we never needed
 Any more than this
 Any more than this
 ♪
 Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you do
 I know I'll never really get inside of you
 To make your eyes catch fire
 The way they should
 The way the blue will pull me in
 If they only would
 If they only would
 At least I'd lose this sense of sensing
 Something else that hides away
 From me and you
 There's worlds to part
 With aching looks and breaking hearts
 And all the smiles your hands can break
 But I can take as much as you can throw
 And then throw it all away
 Oh I'll throw it all away
 Like throwing faces at the sky
 Like throwing arms round
 Yesterday I stood and stared
 Like a stone infront of you
 And the way I stared it felt
 I looked right out of you
 And watching me stand like a stone
 I broke inside of you
 Elise believe me
 Take me away from this
 And secretely we'll slip into all our promises
 Away from it all
 In the cover of the night again
 And we watch the years fall
 And then we'll cheer it up like this, we do

 And make-believe we never needed
 Any more than this
 Any more than this
 And every time I try to pick it up
 Like falling sand
 As fast as I pick it up
 It runs away through my clutching hands
 But there's nothing else I can really do
 There's nothing else I can really do
 There's nothing else I can really do
 At all
