Manic Street Preachers - Comfort Comes lyrics

Need someone to nurse me

Reach out for the first person I see

Comforts the helpless sole vanity

Caressing the broken heart of me

The difference between love and comfort

Is that comfort's more reliable and true

Brutal and mocking but always there

A crutch for emnity's saddest glare

I wish that someone would hold me

Wrap their arms around a shrinking somebody

Comfort comes and ease me till the morning

Whispered words of sanctuary

The difference between love and comfort

Is that comfort's more reliable and true

Brutal and mocking but always there

A crutch for emnity's saddest glare

Forgetting how I hate self-pity blonde

Comfort comes and smooths her over

Calloused hands turn a beautiful dress

Handcuffs now her pearl bracelets
