still pure. and still shooting stars around your heart.
night time slows, raindrops splash rainbows
perhaps someone you know, could sparkle and shine
as daydreams slide to colour from shadow
picture the moonglow, that dazzles my eyes
and I love you
just lying smiling in the dark
shooting stars around your heart
dreams come bouncing in your head
pure and simple everytime
now you’re crying in your sleep
i wish you’d never learnt to weep
don’t sell the dreams you should be keeping
pure and simple everytime
dreams of sights, of sleigh rides in seasons
where feelings not reasons, can make you decide
as leaves pour down, splash autumn on gardens
as colder nights harden, their moonlit delights
and I love you
just lying smiling in the dark
shooting stars around your heart
dreams come bouncing in your head
pure and simple everytime
now you’re crying in your sleep
i wish you’d never learnt to weep
don’t sell the dreams you should be keeping
pure and simple everytime
look at me with starry eyes
push me up to starry skies
there’s stardust in my head
pure and simple everytime
fresh and deep as oceans new
shiver at the sight of you
i’ll sing a softer tune
pure and simple over you
if love’s the truth then look no lies
and let me swim around your eyes
I’ve found a place I’ll never leave
shut my mouth and just believe
love is the truth I realize
not a stream of pretty lies
to use us up and waste our time
lying smiling in the dark
shooting stars around your heart
dreams come bouncing in your head
pure and simple everytime
now you’re crying in your sleep
i wish you’d never learnt to weep
don’t sell the dreams you should be keeping
pure and simple everytime
look at me with starry eyes
push me up to starry skies
there’s stardust in my head
pure and simple everytime
fresh and deep as oceans new
shiver at the sight of you
I’ll sing a softer tune
pure and simple over you
pure and simple just for you
Un-moving pictures.
Kenneth: How do you picture death? What’s your worst-case scenario?
Benn: Well, from the very beginning, there have been pictures. And for me, the worst that can happen is that those pictures would stop.
