Duran Duran – The Chauffeur lyrics
[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Out on the tar plains
The glides are moving
All looking for
A new place to drive
You sit beside me
So newly charming
Sweating dew drops glisten
Freshing your side

[Chorus]
And the sun drips down
Bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress
All shadowy lined
And the droning engine
Throbs in time
With your beating heart

[Verse 2]
Way down the lane away
Living for another day
The aphids swarm up in
The drifting haze
Swim seagull in the sky
Towards that hollow
Western isle
My envied lady holds you
Fast in her gaze

[Chorus]
And the sun drips down
Bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress
All shadowy lined
And the droning engine
Throbs in time
With your beating heart

And the sun drips down
Bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress
All shadowy lined
And the droning engine
Throbs in time
With your beating heart

[Refrain]
Sing Blue Silver

[Instrumental-Bridge]

[Bridge]
And watching lovers part
I feel you smiling
What glass splinters lie
So deep in your mind
To tear out from your eyes
With a word to stiffen brooding lies
But I'll only watch you leave me
Further behind

[Chorus]
And the sun drips down
Bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress
All shadowy lined
And the droning engine
Throbs in time
With your beating heart

And the sun drips down
Bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress
All shadowy lined
And the droning engine
Throbs in time
With your beating heart

[Refrain]
Sing Blue Silver
Sing, sing Blue Silver

[Instrumental-Outro]
"Known as Albert Schweitzer

There's more to this kind of camouflage
More than just colour and shape

Who’s crawling now
In the tall grass near my tent?
