Barberini Square Lyrics
Where the fountains freeze
And teetering heels fall to their knees
In disrepair
A dozen limping midnights
Leave me there
Where the vandals loot
And no magnum opus
Dares to stoop
The cupboards bare
Drag your heels to Barberini Square
I close my fist around
The poles from north to south
No blushes to burn
Long, long gone
Nothing to no-one
Moving on, moving on
I have watched the trains
Pulling away time and again
From platforms stained
With lovers tears
And grateful arms the same
Just a name to sing
Cross white hot coals
A winter wind
To climb the stairs
And grace my lips on Barberini Square
I close my fist around
The poles from north to south
No blushes to burn
Long, long gone
Nothing to no-one
Moving on, moving on
In a certain light
Your face could launch
A bare knuckle fight
With scowls to spare
Drag your heels to Barberini Square
I close my fist around
The poles from north to south
No blushes to burn
Long, long gone
Nothing to no-one
Moving on, moving on
Long gone, long, long gone
And teetering heels fall to their knees
In disrepair
A dozen limping midnights
Leave me there
And no magnum opus
Dares to stoop
The cupboards bare
Drag your heels to Barberini Square
The poles from north to south
No blushes to burn
Long, long gone
Nothing to no-one
Moving on, moving on
Pulling away time and again
From platforms stained
With lovers tears
And grateful arms the same
Cross white hot coals
A winter wind
To climb the stairs
And grace my lips on Barberini Square
The poles from north to south
No blushes to burn
Long, long gone
Nothing to no-one
Moving on, moving on
Your face could launch
A bare knuckle fight
With scowls to spare
Drag your heels to Barberini Square
The poles from north to south
No blushes to burn
Long, long gone
Nothing to no-one
Moving on, moving on
