A Piece of You - Tony Banks

A street in Paris in the rain

I shoot in black and white a hundred frames

I watch your make-up

Begin to run

You show a strange unease

But you’re my subject and it’s me you please

I feel your spirit freeze

As the shutter clicks down

We are in heaven now

As if we broke the bonds of earth somehow

Here for eternity

A piece of you is part of me

I know you’ll never leave

Cos like a primitive I do believe

I have you spirit seized

As the shutter clicks down

We are in heaven now

As if we broke the bonds of earth somehow

Here for eternity

A piece of you is part of me

We are in heaven now

As if we broke the bonds of earth somehow

You’re under my control

Because I’ve captured your immortal soul

Don’t look for signs

Your spirit shines

Here till the end of our days

And now in Paris in the rain

I put the camera in its case again

And in those hundred frames

Another moth to the candle flame

We are in heaven now

As if we broke the bonds of earth somehow

Here for eternity

A piece of you is part of me
