The Cure - Peel Session 1980

A Forest [Verse 1]
Come closer and see
See into the trees
Find the girl
While you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes
Just follow your eyes

[Verse 2]
I hear her voice
Calling my name
The sound is deep
In the dark
I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees
Into the trees

[Bridge]
Into the trees

[Verse 3]
Suddenly I stop
But I know it's too late
I'm lost in a forest
All alone
The girl was never there
It's always the same
I'm running towards nothing
Again and again and again and again

Seventeen Seconds [Verse]
Time slips away
And the light begins to fade
And everything is quiet now
Feeling is gone
And the picture disappears
And everything is cold now
The dream had to end
The wish never came true
And the girl starts to sing

[Chorus]
Seventeen seconds
A measure of life
Seventeen seconds

Play For Today [Verse 1]
It's not a case of doing what's right
It's just the way I feel that matters
Tell me I'm wrong, I don't really care
It's not a case of share and share alike
I take what I require
I don't understand, you say it's not fair

[Chorus]
You expect me to act like a lover
Consider my moves and deserve the reward
To hold you in my arms and wait, and wait
And wait for something to happen

[Verse 2]
It's not a case of telling the truth
Some lines just fit the situation
You call me a liar, you would anyway
It's not a case of aiming to please
You know you're always crying
It's just your part in the play for today

M [Verse 1]
Hello image
Sing me a line from your favourite song
Twist and turn but you're trapped in the light
All the directions were wrong

[Refrain 1]
You'll fall in love with somebody else tonight

[Verse 2]
Help yourself
But tell me the words before you fade away
You reveal all the secrets to remember the end
And escape someday

[Refrain 2]
You'll fall in love with somebody else again tonight

[Verse 3]
Take a step
You move in time but it's always back
The reasons are clear, your face is drawn
And ready for the next attack
