Marillion - Cinderella Search lyrics

(derek dick, mark kelly, steve rothery, peter trewavas, ian mosley)<br><br>On the rebound, fumbling all the lines<br>The light at the end of the bottle - alcoholicalphabet<br>Through the looking glass<br>The proof in my own reflection<br>Five senses down and reeling on the cinderella search<br><br>On the rebound, fumbling all the lines<br>Decay on the vertical hold with a horizontal aim<br>Conversation needs translation<br>Three dimensions down dissolving on the cinderella search<br>Cinderella search<br><br>On the rebound, fumbling all the lines<br>Dreaming bartenders, bourbon and saxophone<br>Out of luck, out of charm, out the game of rejections in a cigarette city<br>Only courting the homing of direction on the cinderella search<br>Cinderella search<br><br>But the samaritan of the heartbroken, heartbroken<br>Swam through the nicotine seize, and we exchanged the kiss of life<br>Resurrection in a trance, the model, the grail, in a marquee of promises I touched the dream<br>I hold the dream, I have the dream<br>To end the cinderella search<br>Cinderella search, oh no more, no more!<br><br>Exposing bedside manners on a work extension<br>Awaiting development with paranoid polaroid eyes<br>Polaroid eyes<br><br>The footman memorised the number<br>But the prince still holds both the slippers<br>And would you leave a palace for a bedsit<br>And canterbury tales<br>Canterbury tales? <br><br>Maybe it was infatuation or the thrill of the chase<br>Maybe you were always beyond my reach and my heart was playing safe<br>But was that love in your eye I saw or the reflection of mine? <br>Give me time, won't you give me that time!<br><br>Welcome back to the circus<br>Welcome back to the circus<br>Welcome back to the circus<br><br>I always use the cue sheets but never the nets<br>Always the cue sheets but never the nets<br>Never the nets, never the nets, nevertheless, nevertheless, nevertheless, nevertheless, nevertheless<br><br>Welcome back to the circus!
