Venus de Milo Lyrics

Watch out for beauty

Somebody said

When the world's at your feet

It'll go to your head

I told myself

Look inside instead

Then you come around

Watch out for sorrow

Dressed in disguise

I've come this far so

You'd think I'd be wise

And look in your heart

And not in your eyes

When you come around

Venus de Milo

It's out of my hands

All that I've seen

Is all I can stand

You're comin' home late

With your arms still 'round

Some other man

Didn't I know?

Didn't I know?

Venus De Milo

Each time I see you

I know what to say

It's right on my tongue

I rehearsed it all day

See, I've got my pride

And I won't live this way

Then you come around

And what kind of goddess

Are you s'posed to be?

To scatter your love

Like the winds on the sea

The ships on the bottom

They call out to me

When you come around

And you come around

Venus de Milo

It's out of my hands

All that I've seen

Is all I can stand

You're comin' home late

With your arms still 'round

Some other man

Venus de Milo

All I can do

Is try to believe

What'll never be true

That there'll come a day

When I'll be holding all of you

Didn't I know?

Didn't I know?

Venus De Milo
