Album: The Facts of Life

Goodnight Kiss


Put on your make-up
Apply it with care
Use your imagination
We can go anywhere

We'll have an adventure
I'm bored with just love
A fairy tale with a sting in the tail
Tonight we'll draw blood

From Blackpool tower to Brighton pier
Turn the lights out we know there's no-one here
Goodbye
Goodnight

The candle is burning
So the modern butterfly
Can plant out a night-life
It's purely desire

We might meet some old friends
We might push our luck
Hot on the heels of something
Hot on the heels of not much

From Severn bridge to Southend-on-Sea
Turn the lights out before you leave, goodnight
Goodbye
Goodnight

It's been a good night
It's just a goodnight kiss

The night's nearly over
Get a taxi at five
I'll cradle your head in my hands
Check that you're still alive

Golden mile to Morecambe bay
Turn the lights out as there's nothing left to say
Goodbye
Goodnight

From Dungeness to the Isle of White
Would the last one to leave turn out the light
Goodbye
Goodnight

It's just a good night
It's been a good night
It's just a goodnight kiss
