Warm Reception - Blancmange

Sitting in reception

Awaiting our departure

Carpenters, then Bowie

Streaming through idle chatter

Miles to come and miles behind

Infinite traffic coned

Multi-lane delays

Giving rise to detailed mind-wanderings

Of you now and then

And of you to come

Of you now and then, and

Of you to come

It’s all alone now

There’s no regret

I’d do it all again

And cross and dot the very bloody lie

Hinting at the fracture

Hairline cracks appearing now

Different in the theater

To the theater on the street

Of you now and then

And of you to come

Of you now and then, and

Of you to come

Of you now and then

And of you to come

Of you now and then, and

Of you to come

Sitting in reception

Awaiting our departure

Carpenters, then Bowie

Streaming through idle chatter

Miles to come and miles behind

Infinite traffic coned

Multi-lane delays

Giving rise to detailed mind-wanderings

Of you now and then

And of you to come

Of you now and then, and

Of you to come
