Lyrics

Silverscreen

Stolen crown, pillow down
All tangled in my head
Evening gown, the lights downtown
All dangle in the air

Gates of heaven open, there is me
On the silverscreen
I hope they did good editing

Belle and beau, buck and doe
A love of tender age
Jill and Joe, do-si-do
A tragedy on stage

Gates of heaven open, there is me
On the silverscreen
I hope they did good editing

Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
Hello to my beautiful mind, bye-bye
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
Hello to my beautiful mind, bye-bye

Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye, bye-bye
Hello to my beautiful mind, bye-bye
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye, bye-bye
Hello to my beautiful mind

Crystal ball, padded walls
A bright blue TV glare
A moth to light is as lost as I'm found
Far down cellar stair

Gates of heaven open, there is me
On the silverscreen
I hope they did good editing

Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye

    Jesca Hoop - Long Wave Home

    Relationships, responsibility and wider unrest all sit side by side, woven into songs that ask big questions.
