Robyn Hitchcock - Light Blue Afternoon lyrics

Just a speck in the mirror
On a light blue afternoon and that speck's
Getting bigger it’ll be a big speck soon
On a light blue afternoon
It's been coming all your life
And there's no derailing destiny
She’s a single-minded girl when you were
Just a baby they put a weapon in your hand
You grew long you grew lazy
You cast a shadow in the sand
On a light blue afternoon
Have you any idea how it
Feels to be cut down?

If you were not so aggressive
I'd feel pity in my arm
Your rage is so possessive
I just don't know where to start
On a light blue afternoon
And i don't know where i am with you
There's no safety in your eye


But the skin is soft (but the skin is soft)
The skin is soft alright
(the skin is soft alright)
But the skin is soft (but the skin is soft)
The skin is soft alright
(the skin is soft alright)
But the skin is soft (but the skin is soft)
The skin is soft alright
(the skin is soft alright)
But the skin is soft (but the skin is soft)
The skin is soft alright
(the skin is soft alright)
