Notting Hill Blues Lyrics by Aztec Camera

Notting Hill Blues

Words and music by roddy frame


All the madness in the mirror,
The tremblin and the tears.
It takes a long time comin out,
Its comin out of here.
Ive been wandering your london town,
And its wearin out my shoes.
Its a long road comin down,
Comin down with the blues.

But when you hold me and really make love to me,
I know that love is true forgiveness.
Time on my mind is time spent with you,
But its time that I cant find,
With the notting hill blues.

Lovers pass me on the gate,
Like distant cousings, removed,
Holding hands, it seems like an act of fate,
And Im almost moved.
But love has left me standing still,
With no directions and no clues,
No speech to let my feelings loose.
A celebration of the blues.

But when you hold me and really make love to me,
I know that love is true forgiveness.
Out on the road I was down with the crew,
Now Im all alone, on the run,
With the notting hill blues.

And its a lonely, lonely time,
Sadness preys upon my mind,
A telephone and a bottle of booze,
But who do you call? when your tongue tied,
Up all night.
