The Go-Betweens - To Reach Me lyrics

Never tought I'd ever hear from you

My slapped face has healed

so has the misunderstanding

And what brings, what brings you around

Amidst this torrid time

With your heart near mine

To Reach Me keep your lover there

To Reach Me from your side of town

Never tell me you have alnight dreams

Don't talk of impulse or the lonely road

Those demons I just don't see them

Are there any here tonight?

Do they wear horns or burn bright

(Chorus)

And the playboys have all gone to bed

They're tired and their models, drawn on a charcoal sketch

A pipe burns and the smoke goes over the calendar spread

Over the naked girls

Your family tree has never held a ghost

Did Gulliver ever bend down so far

Ruth said

Ruth said

she said

That you once disapproved

How could anyone disapprove of me?

To Reach Me keep your lover there

To Reach Me from your side of town

To Reach Me

To my side of town
