Marianne Faithfull - The Blue Millionaire lyrics

You've seen him

In the undirected light of street dreams

Doing nothing

Standing, like to seem casual

With a resemblance to people held by fear

Lit by fire and disrepair

The blue millionaire

Don't listen and keep asking

Only stories reach this far

No one's left and no one's coming

And I will disappear

Far away from you

The American wind

And the blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

There is no such thing as the Wrong Man

Blue as the dusk that ended my day

And shut off the light and air

I wish I could tell you

How he put them in cages

Found you where you slept

Got me down with something else than bruises

Tied me to a blue chair

Lit by fire and disrepair

The blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

Seen him drinking gin from pale blue bottles

Drowning in shadow

Shadows moving in

Forever imagine

Imagine it's him

Nearby the window

With dreams broken in

I don't laugh anymore or smile

I am lost in the body

The passion of time

He is screening my dreams

And everything that's mine

Don't stay in this mirror

Other hands have left me in

You don't blow away as I do

It will be the same again

Turn and point away from here

Steal what you cannot win

From the blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

Blue millionaire

Blue
