Lyrics

The Only Face

Havana moon

You got me in the strangest mood

Just me myself no-one else

Could ever be so blue

No backstreet woman

No grand hotel

The only face, out of place

An empty shell

Havana moon

Nobody knows me like you do

Nowhere to turn I never learn

I can't break through

No backstreet woman

No grand hotel

The only face, out of place

An empty shell

You make me nervous

Your telephone

You drive me crazy

I want to be alone

I want to be alone

Me myself no-one else

I want to be alone
