Marc Almond - Earthly lyrics

You came out of the ether
Like a mythical creature
You came out of the ether and into my heart

An elemental creation with a royal carnation
And into the Eden my life did depart
But as our Gods have feet of clay
I just chose to look away
All too earthly, all too real
But, you won't know the way I feel
All too earthly soul of steel
You won't know the way I feel

All too earthly, thrown to the fire
How can I believe the words of a liar?
All too earthly, heart of stone
Best to walk this world alone

Just as your words set me dreaming
Onе day I found out that they had no meaning
Celluloid is slowly burning
As thе tide of love is turning
But just as some cities are built on sand
All my dreams turn to dust in your hand, yeah

All too earthly, all too real
But, you won't know the way I feel
All too earthly soul of steel
You won't know the way I feel

All too earthly, thrown to the fire
How can I believe the words of a liar?
All too earthly, heart of stone
Best to walk this world alone without you
Without you

Eros and Icarus, we fall into one
You're Icarus, flying too near to the sun
Burning up, burning, your wings turn to ash
Falling now, falling, you're soon to crash
You're the star I've built my life around
Why did you have to go and let me down?

All too earthly all on fire
Just the downfall of a liar
