Torch (Extended Version / 12" Edit)

I'm lost again

And I'm on the run

Looking for love

In a sad song

With your avenger eyes

And your cat like ways

I can hold you

You're a fool for me to be cruel

I'm leaning on this bar

Listening to you sing

And your sad song

Rings in my ears

And I start to cry

He's searching

She's showing

See him held in a deep deep spell

He knows she's glowing

I can find within my mind

A way to go

I can look deep into your life and shout

Hold me hold me hold me hold me

I hear the saxophone

And it tears my soul

And they're feeling old

Feeling so cold

She is the torch

And she is the theme

She could be a dream

But oh boy is she real

Try to avoid her eyes

To avoid her words

They will hit you

With all that you feel

See her eyes they are bright tonight

See the stars coming out tonight

See the moon looking down tonight

See how they light your way tonight

See my eyes they are bright tonight

See my hands reaching out tonight

Hear my words they are dynamite

See how they light your way tonight

When I first met you

You looked like Billie Holliday

Had that nude backless dress

The one with the sequins and the single white gardenia

I was probably drunk and had no make-up on

Oh but you had such style

Really

Nice words you sang

It was probably my life's story

It was mine too

I remember I drank too much and made a fool of myself

You looked OK to me

But when you get like me you know you're in trouble

I wanted to grab you and kiss you

But I thought you'd hit me

Too right baby

But those words just kept

Calling calling calling

You're lost again

And you're on the run

Looking for love

In a sad song

With my avenger eyes

And my cat like ways

I can hold you

You're a fool for me to be cruel
