Eight Hundred Dollar Shoes Lyrics

You Had Your Grand Illusion
And Wrestled With Your Fate
The Winter Of Your Discontent
Came Twenty Years Too Late
If It Was Love And I Was There
I’ve Forgotten Where It Lives
We Both Stepped Off A Frozen
Rock Onto A Burning Bridge
You Came Like An Invasion All
Bells And Whistles Blowing
Reaping The Rewards Of The
Fable You’d Been Sowing
I Saw You Cross The Landing
And Descending Marble Stairs
Like Caesar Crossed The Rubicon
You Seemed To Walk On Air

And Yeah I’ve Seen Your Movie
And I Read It In Your Book
The Truth Just Flew Off Every Page
Your Songs Have All The Hooks
You’re Seven Wonders Rolled In One
You Shifted Gear To Cruise
Oh You Came To Town In Headlines
And Eight Hundred Dollar Shoes

Oh The Bellboys Are Crying And
Moneys Changing Hands
Your Cloak And Dagger Legacy’s
Gone Home To No Man’s Land
The Marquee Lights Are Flickering
Your Poster’s Fading Fast
Your Being Here Just Melts Away
Like Ice Cubes In A Glass

And Yeah I’ve Seen Your Movie
And I Read It In Your Book
The Truth Just Flew Off Every Page
Your Songs Have All The Hooks
You’re Seven Wonders Rolled In One
You Shifted Gear To Cruise
Oh You Came To Town In Headlines
And Eight Hundred Dollar Shoes

Oh You Came To Town In Headlines
And Eight Hundred Dollar Shoes
