Lines On My Face Lyrics


Lines on my head from that one thing she said
She spoke of strangers that don't sleep two a bed
Kept on trying, buying time, not waiting on fate
Somehow got the feeling that I opened my eyes too lateI saw where you came from
I called out your name, but there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
I made you my wife but I don't need thatLines on my face, while I laugh lest I cry
Speed city, dirt and gritty, waving me goodbye
So many people, the family of friends
Trying so hard to make me smile until this heartache mendsI saw where you came from
I called out your name but there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
I made you my wife but I don't need thatIce in her eyes, frozen tears could never be a surprise
You can't erase a dream you can only wake me up
My mind is turning slower, never to accept defeat
It don't matter, it don't matter, where I stay I still got a house to heatI saw where you came from
I called out your name but there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep

I made you my wife but I don't need thatI saw where you came from
I called out your name but there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
I made you my wife but I don't need thatI saw where you came from
I called out your name but there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
I made you my wife but I don't need thatI saw where you came from

Peter Frampton (born 22 April 1950 in Beckenham, Kent) is a British musician, best known today for his multi-platinum selling solo work in the mid-1970s when he was an "arena rocker". He originally became famous, however, as a young member of psychedelic era band The Herd and became a teen idol in Britain. Steve Marriott reportedly wanted to bring the 18 year old Frampton into the Small Faces lineup but when rebuffed, started Humble Pie with Frampton instead.

After touring the US and Europe for two years, he left Humble Pie as the group was gaining popularity because of disdain for Marriott's hard living lifestyle and screaming boogie rock direction. Aside from his work with Humble Pie, other recordings of this era that feature Frampton include albums by Harry Nilsson, Jerry Lee Lewis, and George Harrison.

His solo debut was 1972's Wind Of Change, which did not fare well on the charts, and neither did two more efforts, one under the moniker Frampton's Camel. Constant touring though began to create awareness of his talents and 1974's Frampton LP went gold.

He gained lasting international fame by 1976 when his much-loved live album, Frampton Comes Alive! was released. Having built up his reputation on the road, the LP debuted at No. 1 on the charts in January 1976. It was long considered the best-selling live album of all time, moving over 16 million copies worldwide.

In 1978, Peter suffered a near fatal car crash in the Bahamas, which left him with a concussion, muscle damage and broken bones. But in 1979, he released the album 'Where I Should Be', which went gold and produced the hit 'I Can't Stand It No More'.

His extensive use of the Talk Box effect was and still is an integral part of the Peter Frampton experience.

His albums never regained the high chart placements of the 70's era but he has continued his musical career none the less. Among the gimmicks he's employed to maintain interest have been releasing Frampton Comes Alive II, as well as joining Ringo Starr's touring revue, recording two CDs with ex-Stone Bill Wyman and unsucessfully attempting to reunite with Steve Marriott before his death in 1991. Other notable occasions include starring with The Bee Gees in a film version of The Beatles Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album and playing with David Bowie on his Never Let Me Down album and tour.

In 2006, Frampton released Fingerprints, a completely instrumental guitar showcase album.

Peter now resides in Cincinnati, Ohio and can still be found playing concerts around the world.
