Lyrics
You, the hero
So many times
You've loved
And didn't linger
Now my finger
Points at you
Another loser
You, an island
On your own
Complete
In every detail
Monumental
A precious jewel
Or just a fool
Innovator
It's in your mind
And blood
I watch it simmer
I see you're courting
More despair
No hope?
Not a glimmer
Now you're nothing
But second hand
In glove
With second rate
Now you're flirting
With heroin
Or is it cocaine?
Casanova
Is that your name
Or do you live there?
I know my place
Is here with you
Tonight
But not together
Writer(s): Bryan Ferry
