Phantom Bride — Erasure

She was a shy girl from a lonely street She had no job to do and no friends to meet Shed sit in silence in her rented room Dream of her childhood and invented truths

And in her mind shed drift away A secret place to steal away

Dont you cry, dont you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes Dont you cry, dont you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes

He was a good boy from the outside of town Said he could treat her right said he could win her round Her morning sickness and the kick inside The phantom kisses of the phantom bride

And in her mind shed drift away A secret place to steal away

Dont you cry, dont you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes Dont you cry, dont you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes

And in her mind shed drift away A secret place to steal away Dont you cry, dont you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eye Dont you cry, dont you cry Let me wipe away the tears no more No more lies Dont you cry, dont you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes Dont you cry, dont you cry Let me wipe away the tears Let me wipe away the tears
