Peter Murphy - Your Face Lyrics






Water lily
Freedom
Where does the
Spirit lay?
Freedom
Lying in shadows
Of light and clay

I trace your feet
Like transparent thrones
I dream of your clinging
I am not alone
I glide with you
Draw you with kole
Your paint the river
I am not alone

That lover
In the crash
That scent
lingers now
Your face

Your face

I trace your feet
Like transparent thrones
I dream of your clinging
I am not alone
I glide with you
Draw you with kole
Your paint the river
I am not alone

Peter Murphy Your Face Comments
  1. S.... R....

    Goosebumps!!!!

  2. Z.... w....

    I met peter in 2016 and what a gentleman he is ! And a voice to die for .

  3. D.... ....

    While this doesn't blow me away, I appreciate that on this track, Murph hasn't parodied his own voice, as he had a tendency to do, it's a very thoughtful and grown-up job, the melody is beautifully constructed, very Ofra Haza.

  4. E.... ....

    Just feel

  5. R.... R....

    Had this song playing in the back of my head most of the time when I was reading 'The Vorrh' a few years back

  6. H.... M....

  14. A.... B....

    From the fog to fog , from the dust to dust , from the ash to ash, you stay forever. (i) candle in the wind.

  15. c.... p....

    AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!   A "TRUE" genius.

  16. E.... ....

    Very good and DEEP feelings "OMAGINE" The roots that inspired it ring of my most spiritual time in life, comforting me. 'FREEDOM - where does the spirit lie - FREEDOM" was in my ears as i wondered what she was experiencing

    Where does the spirit lay?
    Freedom, lying in shadows of light and clay

    I trace your feet like transparent thrones
    I dream of your clinging, I am not alone
    I glide with you, draw you with kole
    You paint the river, I am not alone

    That lover in the crash
    That scent lingers now
    Your face
    Your face

    I trace your feet like transparent thrones
    I dream of your clinging, I am not alone
    I glide with you, draw you with kole
    Your paint the river, I am not alone

    Wow, great song........I was lucky enough to meet Peter when he came to NZ. Extremely talented and a really good sort. Please come back to NZ, would love to see your show again.

  19. G.... C....

    Atmosféricamente sublime.

  20. C.... H....

    I know Peter Murphy went through some kind of Dead Can Dance phase. I feel this song reflects their influence. 

    C.... H....

     same :)

    C.... H....

    +CRAIG HARDESTY Peter lives in Isanbul since 1992 , his wife is turkysh , he changed his religion , from irish catholic he took some special sort of Islam, that influenced him more than Brendan Perry . I think

    C.... H....

    i would have thought he would have been above having a religion. Anyhoo, this song is totally Dead Can Dance. He is even mocking Brendan Perry's vocals. 

    C.... H....

    +John Stromboly
    He Didn't Convert, He Adapted Elements Of Islam Into His Own Beliefs/Feelings...

    C.... H....

    Llol, poor guy...

  21. M.... ....

    Didnt read.

  22. p.... ....

    Hauntingly beautiful song & video, thank you for sharing! No disrespect but to me this song is best listened to with headphones on and eyes closed! I wish I could video the movie that my own mind creates whilst listening!

    p.... ....

  23. L.... M....

    This song is so special for me!!!it is really great!!!

  37. o.... ....

    this song is the greatest gift i ever received. I had not heard it before, and something led me to put it on my headphones as i sat 3 feet from my mother. She was in the process of passing away. What could have been a horrible empty experience, was made warm and beautiful by this song. The roots that inspired it ring of my most spiritual time in life, comforting me. 'FREEDOM - where does the spirit lie - FREEDOM" was in my ears as i wondered what she was experiencing. I wish i could hug Peter...

    o.... ....

    That's beautiful. Best wishes.

    o.... ....
