The Smile's Gone

Another track featuring the fantastically fructiferous skills of Carsten “Erobique” Meyer – and please listen closely to the verse where he’s a bringing back a delicioius style very rarely appreciated nowadays (despite all the Rufus Wainwrights and Chilly Gonzales’ with their 70s soft rock references): What we call Christopher-Cross-Hospital-Soap-Opera-Theme-Song piano!

lyrics

04. The Smile’s Gone

Wanting was so much better than having
And looking was so much better than being
The pairing suggests a possible copying
Yet I hesitate to make the scene

We’re still having fun, but the smile’s gone
We’re still having fun, but the smile’s gone
It always feels like we’ve just begun
We’re still having fun, but the smile’s gone

Eggs of all colours I find on my bed stand
One to confuse and one to contain
What’s left inside me I gladly submitted
To the European Journal of Pain
