Marc Almond - Broken Hearted And Beautiful lyrics

Waves break over the shore
Her heart breaks over him
Fickle love, faded fantasies
Sweet dreams turning sour within
She touching fourty-four and he
Not so sweet sixteen
And though she loved him more it
Seemed this love had never, ever been

Oh, you know you're still beautiful
Oh, you know you're still beautiful
Oh, you know you're still beautiful

Empty bottles on the shelf as
Time came to pass
(On the shelf your lonely heart)
She thought she'd find his angel face in
The bottom of a whiskey glass
(Thinking of him, fall apart)
Could've been his mother but
She hoped she'd be
His lover just for a little while
Freshened up her make-up, sighed
And tried to welcome middle age
With a friendly smile
She leans to tattoo him with
One long last kiss
Gee I never knew love could be like this
The smell of cheap Gin
Laced with midnight cologne
The man on the TV calls "Kathy
Kathy come home" yeah, Kathy come home

Waves break over the shore
Her heart broke over him
(The waves take your breaking heart)
She threw her memories to the sea and
Now it's just as if he'd never, ever been
(Tides bring a brand new start)
Never, ever been
Letters and photographs, the tide has
Taken them far away, far away
She still looking beautiful and
Who needs him anyway? Anyway

Oh, you know you're still beautiful
Let the waves take your breaking heart
Let the waves take your breaking heart
Let the waves take your breaking heart
Your breaking heart your breaking heart
