Lyrics Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark – Pandora’s Box (It’s A Long, Long Way)
Text:
Born in Kansas on an ordinary plain
Ran to New York, but ran away from fame
Only seventeen when all your dreams come true
But all you wanted was someone to undress you
Still the grace remains, the face has changed, and you’re still the same
And it’s a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be (and it’s a)
And it’s a long, long road (too long), but you’re too blind to see
Frame of silence of an innocence divine
Is a dangerous creation when you fail the test of time
And all the photographs of ghosts of long ago
Still they hurt you so, won’t let you go, and you still don’t know
And it’s a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be (and it’s a)
And it’s a long, long road (too long), but you’re too blind to see
When you look around yourself now
Do you recognize the girl?
The one who broke a thousand hearts
Terrified the world
And all the stars you kissed could never ease the pain
But if the faces change, the grace remains, and you’re still the same
And it’s a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be (and it’s a)
And it’s a long, long road (too long), but you’re too blind to see (and it’s a)
And it’s a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be (and it’s a)
And it’s a long, long road (too long), and you’re too blind to see (and it’s a)
And it’s a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be (and it’s a)
And it’s a long, long road (too long), and you’re too blind to see (and it’s a)
And it’s a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be
