Time to shrug your shoulders Has passed some time ago The sun is cutting corners To make room for the snow Now where are you invisible? Are you freezing in the streets below? Or are you still burning in that sterile time Oh Christine, Christine Your eyes have changed They stare obscenely free They careen around the room Out of breath and without colour I wish I had the wire to yank your lover from his sleep But I'm afraid he's lying with another Christine Christine What happened to the tears you tossed so carelessly? Before you had a reason to let them go accordingly An ocean grew around your legs and swallowed you obviously The last look on your face I remember was disaster Oh Christine Christine Your mind has changed You've checked your roots again And the time that is remaining there no one has ever known I wish I had the key to set you free I'd lock the madness in But I'm afraid that would only you alone Christine Christine
