John Waite - The Glittering Prize

John Waite

The Glittering Prize

There's a silent movie running off
Its real inside my mind
As I try to fall asleep tonight
On prescription lullabys
In the darkness there's a doorway
That leads me back to you forever

But these days there's only you and I in photographs
Ambitions and dreams we've shared
Now I wonder who has got the last laugh

'Cause I know you're crying
And you know I'm cold inside
Got no expectations for my pride
As I reach for that glittering prize

I remember on our wedding day
Looking back at you
Our eyes met and we said goodbye
As we both said "I do"
Didn't I make a promise, baby
I would stand by you forever

But sometimes the best laid plans
Flare up and blow away
And fairytale logic comes
Sweeps you heart, your soul, your world away

'Cause I know you're crying
And you know I'm cold inside
And I'm tired of living with that lie

And now time is flying
And you know I miss that fire
'Cause I feel for you, I've got desire
So I reach for that glittering prize

No doll's house dreams or valentines
Just the future at the door
Just leaving trains and empty rooms
A broken band of gold
'Cause love don't live here anymore

And some nights I'll come and see you
And I know you'll let me in
Two strangers in silence now
'Cause you know in love
We could never win

'Cause I know you're crying
And you know I'm cold inside
And I'm tired of living with this lie, these days

'Cause now time is flying
And you know I miss that fire
'Cause I feel for you
I've got desire, baby, baby

In my world tonight
(In your world tonight)
Reach for that glittering prize
(In my world)

That's all I ever seemed to do
(In your world tonight)
Was reach for that glittering prize
(In my world)

I lost myself when I lost you
(In your world tonight)
As I reached for that glittering prize
(In my world)

And I hope that all your dreams come true
(In your world tonight)
When you reach for that glittering prize
(In my world)

In your world
In my world tonight

Mirror lyrics:

In my world tonight
In your world

(In my world)
When you reach for that glittering prize
(In your world tonight)
And I hope that all your dreams come true

(In my world)
As I reached for that glittering prize
(In your world tonight)
I lost myself when I lost you

(In my world)
Was reach for that glittering prize
(In your world tonight)
That's all I ever seemed to do

(In my world)
Reach for that glittering prize
(In your world tonight)
In my world tonight

I've got desire, baby, baby
'Cause I feel for you
And you know I miss that fire
'Cause now time is flying

And I'm tired of living with this lie, these days
And you know I'm cold inside
'Cause I know you're crying

We could never win
'Cause you know in love
Two strangers in silence now
And I know you'll let me in
And some nights I'll come and see you

'Cause love don't live here anymore
A broken band of gold
Just leaving trains and empty rooms
Just the future at the door
No doll's house dreams or valentines

So I reach for that glittering prize
'Cause I feel for you, I've got desire
And you know I miss that fire
And now time is flying

And I'm tired of living with that lie
And you know I'm cold inside
'Cause I know you're crying

Sweeps you heart, your soul, your world away
And fairytale logic comes
Flare up and blow away
But sometimes the best laid plans

I would stand by you forever
Didn't I make a promise, baby
As we both said "I do"
Our eyes met and we said goodbye
Looking back at you
I remember on our wedding day

As I reach for that glittering prize
Got no expectations for my pride
And you know I'm cold inside
'Cause I know you're crying

Now I wonder who has got the last laugh
Ambitions and dreams we've shared
But these days there's only you and I in photographs

That leads me back to you forever
In the darkness there's a doorway
On prescription lullabys
As I try to fall asleep tonight
Its real inside my mind
There's a silent movie running off
