Touch And Go Lyrics by John Foxx
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
We stepped out in the shatter light
And I watched as we blew away
Through a sea of seats
And the tangled-up streets
And the cities in a grey-blue haze

In the catalogue
All the places fold in
Underneath a daylight moon
Grey eyes, brown eyes
Mad nights, red skies
Well, I keep them in a jumble room

So while I am the one who waits here
We all know that it's all such a game of touch and go
Let's play at touch and go
I'm waking up in the moving windows
Going out to play the game of touch and go
'Cause it's all so touch and go

The summer boy in his dark-blue shirt
Getting letters from Tokyo
And we're sitting in a shaky lake
Or gliding over to a girl with a broken nose

There's motorway sparks
And meetings in the park
And fires from years ago
You can watch your friends
Through this tiny lens
Then you'll know that there's no way home

So while I am the one who waits here
We all know that it's all such a game of touch and go
Let's play at touch and go
Waking up in the moving windows
Going out again to play the game of touch and go
'Cause it's all so touch and go
Let's go

Touch
Go
Touch and go
Touch and go
Touch
Go
Touch and go
Touch and go
Oh-oh

Now it's springtime
On the moving stairway
Time to start again
And I'm wondering vaguely just whose face this is
And could we ever be friends?
Outside now it's so huge and blue
And the city windows start to glow
And the tides are soft as we're casting off
As the summer starts to show

So while I am the one who waits here
Where I like to play the game of touch and go
Let's play at touch and go
I'm waking up in the moving windows
Going out again to play the game of touch and go
'Cause it's all so touch and go
So let's go...
We stepped out in the shatter light   And I watched as we blew away   Through a sea of seats   And the tangled-up streets   And the cities in a grey-blue haze      In the catalogue   All the places fold in   Underneath a daylight moon   Grey eyes, brown eyes   Mad nights, red skies   Well, I keep them in a jumble room      So while I am the one who waits here   We all know that it's all such a game of touch and go   Let's play at touch and go   I'm waking up in the moving windows   Going out to play the game of touch and go   'Cause it's all so touch and go      The summer boy in his dark-blue shirt   Getting letters from Tokyo   And we're sitting in a shaky lake   Or gliding over to a girl with a broken nose      There's motorway sparks   And meetings in the park   And fires from years ago   You can watch your friends   Through this tiny lens   Then you'll know that there's no way home      So while I am the one who waits here   We all know that it's all such a game of touch and go   Let's play at touch and go   Waking up in the moving windows   Going out again to play the game of touch and go   'Cause it's all so touch and go   Let's go      Touch   Go   Touch and go   Touch and go   Touch   Go   Touch and go   Touch and go   Oh-oh      Now it's springtime   On the moving stairway   Time to start again   And I'm wondering vaguely just whose face this is   And could we ever be friends?   Outside now it's so huge and blue   And the city windows start to glow   And the tides are soft as we're casting off   As the summer starts to show      So while I am the one who waits here   Where I like to play the game of touch and go   Let's play at touch and go   I'm waking up in the moving windows   Going out again to play the game of touch and go   'Cause it's all so touch and go   So let's go...
