UB40 The Pillow Lyrics

N.C
N.C
A smile for every passing car and when they stop with door ajar,
N.C
She shrugs and whispers `que sera` and turns her thoughts to the pillow,
N.C
Her face is etched with memories she finds no joy amid the sleaze,
N.C
It`s hard when you`ve been paid to please so she turns her head to the pillow.
horus 1
Daylight comes she rests her head,
The beauty of an empty bed,
She dreams of happy days instead,
Of brooding on tomorrow.
She swapped her dreams of shining knights for pushers bars and money fights,
For nameless faces in red light so she turns her head to the pillow,
Those black eyes they don`t hurt no more she`s heard the jokes and jibes before,
She`s felt the long arm of the law so she turns her head to the pillow.
horus 2
Daylight comes she rests her head,
The beauty of an empty bed,
She dreams of happy days instead,
Of brooding on tomorrow.
Taking drugs was not for fun it made her feel like going on,
But know she hurts when it`s all gone and she turns her head to the pillow,
N.C
She takes a blade and breaks her skin sweat life source flows from within,
N.C
The white clouds in her head grow dim and she turns her face to the pillow.
horus 3
Sunlight creeps across her bed,
Pale beauty in a crimson bed,
No dreams of happy days ahead she`ll have no more,
N.C
Tomorrows.
N.C for 38-40 bars then.
