Town Without Pity - Gene Pitney
 

Plumage

Across the heath, in the early morning glow
Birds pass on by, where may they be tomorrow
I follow the sizzling of the wings into the somber moor
Age-old songs resound from the haze


Come and fly away with us
Let the wind carry you
Far away from this place
Come and fly as high as you can
Let us chase the skies
In our dance

Silken Haze, so chilly, brushing my skin
Further and further, where shall I find my yearning's goal
I close my eyes and grow a plumage
I feel the wind already and spread my wings to fly

Come and fly away with us
Let the wind carry you
Far away from this place
Come and fly as high as you can
Let us chase the skies
In our dance

The heavens in you, how can I know them, can I see them
In flight we dance like the stars, moving on their paths

Come and fly away with us
Let the wind carry you
Far away from this place
Come and fly as high as you can
Let us chase the skies
In our dance
 



Born To Break My Heart - Carly Simon

You were born to break, you were born to break, you were born to break my heart

The same kitchen, the same eyes
The same reaction to the same lies
It was not so long ago
A most auspicious start
And only now I know
You were born to break my heart
You were born to break my heart

Guilt Trip, I can hear you say
Get a grip girl, you’ve lost your way
You don’t begin to understand
I guess it’s time that we part
And don't be using that old cliché
You were born to break my heart
You were born to break my heart

No wonder we looked like the perfect couple
It was so brilliantly conceived
It seems I have a yen to lose
And you can’t pass up the perfect chance to leave
The perfect chance to leave

The same plot, the same pain
I'm standing here in the same rain
Just as stubborn as a fool
You’d think I might get smart
But here I am, cursed to seek love again
From yet another cold heart
You were born to break my heart
You were born to break my heart
You were born to break my heart

And if I'd seen it coming
I would have said you were right on time
Even if I hadn't been so blind
Break my heart....
