Venus on a plane Lyrics

I saw Venus on a plane

Goddess of love

In the rain

She smiled as I waved

As I stumbled in pain

Called her name

But she turned from the window

She pulled down the blind

And the very last thing that

Stuck in my mind

Four ivory fingers

Four sexy red tears

The smiles of her people

Still ringing in my ears

She said find me

In Sao Paolo

You know I'm not

What I seem

You hold me like

I'm your woman

But just keep me

As a dream

In a cold northern winter

We flickered and burned

In the rain

There were nights in white satin

Days behind blinds

Gone insane

And I'll remember for ever

Last Tuesday at nine

When she pulled me down close to her

Said she'd be mine

I couldn't believe her

I just wasn't there

Knew I couldn't keep her

Hold something so rare

She just smiled

Then a whisper

Tell me

How much you care

Could you take me

To your mother

Or am I being

Unfair? .. so

Find me

In Sao Paolo

You know I'm not

What I seem

You hold me like

I'm your woman

But just keep me

As a dream

As a dream
