New Order - Face Up Lyrics

Artist: New Order

Album: Lowlife

  • Songwriters: Gillian Lesley Gilbert, Peter Hook, Stephen Paul Davi Morris, Bernard Sumner

Ever since, I've seen your face
This life of mine has gone to waste
I was young and you were old
And I always knew you were cold

At the start you had a heart
But in the end you lost your friend
Can you see your own dark face
It's dieing in a lonely place?

Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you

As we get old, we lose our place
Reflecting back the world's disgrace
I feel so low, I feel so humble
Sometimes in life we take a tumble

Don't let anybody tell you that you're no good
'Cause you know they would
Don't let anybody tell you what you should do
'Cause it's not that way and

Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
We were young and we were pure
And life was just an open door
I said oh, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you

You were me and I was you
This world of ours it felt brand new
You took me
A little further

I heard it all before, I've heard it all before
I can't hear it anymore
Your hair was long, your eyes was blue
Guess what I'm gonna do to you

Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
We were young and we were pure
And life was just an open door
I said oh, oh, how I cannot bear the thought

Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
We were young and we were pure
And life was just an open door
