Disappearing Act lyrics

Come on now, the curtain is drawn

And tomorrow stands before you

Dressed and draped in a coal black cape

Like a crow, he ignores you

Look again, there's a beautiful girl

Covered cinnamon a Holy land smile

It's the great disappearing act

Done once again for tomorrow

As we're chasing our tails

Biting our nails

So strong and frail

And we build and tear down

Build and tear down

Build and tear down

We've run out of time to say

How did it get so late

I'll never know

Step outside, now the door's open wide

And the minons are eager to find him

Put a million miles under your heels

And you're still behind him

Cover your clocks with your chains and your locks

While the seasons get hotter and colder

Stretch your faces and lie about your ages

And still we're gonna get older

As we're chasing our tails

Biting our nails

So strong and frail

And we build and tear down

Build and tear down

Build and tear down

We've run out of time to say

How did it get so late

I'll never know

Hang onto your fingers

Making your hands unwind

He will escape you every time

From under your pillows

Through open windows and lie in open willows

And we build and tear down

Build and tear down

Build and tear down

We've run out of time to say

How did it get so late

I'll never know

I'll never know

I'll never know
