Pandora's Box - Omd

Pandora's Box Lyrics

Born in Kansas on an ordinary plain
Ran to New York but ran away from fame
Only seventeen when all your dreams came true
But all you wanted was someone to undress youAnd all the stars you kissed
Could never ease the pain
Still the grace remains
The face has changed and it's still the sameAnd it's a long long way
From where you want to be
And it's a long long road
But you're too blind to seeFrame of silence
Of an innocence divine
Is a dangerous creation
When you fail the test of timeAnd all the photographs
Of ghosts of long ago
Still they hurt you so
Won't let you go
And you still don't knowAnd it's a long long way
From where you want to be

And it's a long long road
But you're too blind to seeWhen you look around yourself now
Do you recognize the girl?
The one who broke a thousand hearts
Terrified the worldAnd all the stars you kissed
Could never ease the pain
And if the face has changed
The grace remains and you're still the sameAnd it's a long long way
From where you want to be
And it's a long long road
But you're too blind to seeAnd it's a long long way
From where you want to be
And it's a long long road
And you're too blind to seeAnd it's a long long way
From where you want to be
And it's a long long road
And you're too blind to seeAnd it's a long long way
From where you want to be
And it's a long long road
