Double Take - Lyrics by Blondie


Lyrics
Looking for your face
Where it could never be
Iím following a trail
That only I can see
Raising waves of heat
I press on
In tiny bursts of speed
Caught in my pursuit
I pay the fetishist admission
The longing that I feel
Drives me mad in no direction
Nailed by something cute
I tear it out
With microsurgical precision
Incender
Put some gas on the ember
Lightning goes to ground
Incender
Crazy fool on a bender
Striking the ground
Burning me down
Double Take
Left with an aftertaste
I look again
Was it your face?
Double take
Iím in an altered state
I look again
Was it really you?
Another flash of face
Igniting and familiar
Pulls me by the eye
To the perimiter
Riveting my gaze
Is that your face in the crowd?
Incender
Drop some gas on the ember
I felt a slap in the face
Incender
Crazy fool on a bender
Striking the ground
Burning me down
Double Take
Left with an aftertaste
I look again
Was it your face?I feel awake
Iím in an altered state
I look it again
Was it really you?
Double Take
Left with an aftertaste
I look again
Was it your face?
Double Take
Iím in an altered state
I look again
Was it really you?
