Hard Edges Lyrics by Chris Knight
Chris Knight Lyrics
LISA USE TO LOVE TO DANCE
EVER SINCE SHE WAS TEN YEARS OLD
HER BARE FEET RAISIN DUST ON THE YARD
WHERE THE GRASS WOULDNT GROW
SLOWLY SPINNIN ROUND AND ROUND
AND THE MUSIC PLAYIN IN HER HEAD
LATE AT NIGHT IT COULD ALMOST DROWN OUT
THE WHISKEY FROM HER OLD MANS BREATH
WRECKIN YARDS AND DINGY BARS AND ABANDONED FACTORIES
DOWN AMONG THE JAGGED SOULS A BALLERINA SWAYS UNSEEN
CHORUS:
HARD EDGES HIDE THE TENDER HEART
SILENT AS A MIDNIGHT PRAYER
HARD EDGES HIDE THE SWEETEST PART
TIL YOU'D NEVER KNOW ITS THERE
NOW LISA'S IN A CLUB DOWNTOWN
WHERE THE NEON BURNS TIL DAWN
SHE CALLS HERSELF TINA NOW
BUT SHE DANCES TO THE SAME OL SONG
SLOWLY SPINNIN ROUND AND ROUND
IN THE SMOKE AND THE SMELL OF RYE
SHE TAKES OFF ALL HER CLOTHES
SO YOU DONT SEE DOWN IN HER EYES
THE SCARLETT ROUGE AND BLUE TATTOOS ARE ONLY PAINTED ON
BUT UNDERNEATH THE DARK DRUM BEAT A BALLERINA DANCES ON
ON AND ON
REPEAT CHORUS
[Thanks to Max for lyrics]
