lyrics

Now that you're gone
All I have is a poster
Just hanging on to the kitchenette wall
Blackening now with the smoke coming up from the toaster
I can't take her down
Not my Lauren Bacall

The curl of your mouth
The seam of your stocking
What a knockout - oh, boy did I fall
I blurted out something like "the resemblance is shocking!"
She said"Gotta light?"
and "Who's Lauren Bacall?"

I wonder now
Did I light you in shadow?
Drape you in dreams
Like some kind of a doll?
Cos I don't know how, but sometimes I look back and don't know
Who broke my heart:
You or Lauren Bacall?
