Al Stewart - Pandora Lyrics
Pandora comes today
As she dazzles and she dances
You find hope and lose yourself again
She never stays the same
She changes moods like summer thunder
And when she laughs you see danger
She can be cold like a stranger
And you try but you won't change her anyway
And I can see how she makes it
It's a game and still you take it
It's a spell until you break it, you must stay
And lose yourself again.
Pandora takes the time
To tell you stories of her past
The reason and the rhyme
Are twisted 'til you can't believe her
Still you keep pretending that you do.
And when you try to get to her
And you tell her you've seen through her
She'll just say you never knew her anyway
And you still let her fake it
It's a game and still you take it
It's a spell until you break it, you must stay
And lose yourself again.
Pandora comes today
The warning signs flash in her eyes
The old familiar feelings rise again
The pleasure and the pain
Are like two colours run together
Still you can't go on too long this way.
If it's a game you can't win it
I don't know why you stay in it
You could leave her any minute, any day
It should be easy to shake it
But you just can't seem to make it
It's a spell until you break it, you must stay
And lose yourself again.

Al Stewart Pandora Comments
Hard to believable this gem was not included on a "proper" album, takes me back to back end of 81!
Obviously the lead guitar is going to get tons of attention here, but let's take a minute to marrvel at those awesome bass lines
Vastly underrated song.
This song has everything. Its amazing. and the drumming is just incedible
Not merely beautiful, but striking and significant in that haunting way that causes the song to spring to mind at unaccountable times, such that you start thinking "Is *that* what he meant?" and are unable to force your mind to turn to other subjects.
one of his greatest. Pure rock against his soft voice.
