Faces come from yesterday, faces without answer
faces in the camouflage, the faces of an actor
faces we've forgotten and faces we remember to forget

Sometimes when the lights go out we're free
Sometimes when we're dreaming you and me
Sometimes we can almost see our faces
Sometimes we can almost show our faces

Faces with an alibi, faces with a promise
faces that got left behind, faces that return from
sea to face the world again, faces at their value
Faces come from yesterday, and arrive tomorrow
faces go unrecognised, faces smiling back at you

Sometimes when the lights go out we're free
Sometimes when we're dreaming you and me
Sometimes we can almost see our faces
Sometimes we can almost show our faces
Sometimes we can almost see our faces
Sometimes we can almost show our faces

Faces come from yesterday, faces without answer
faces in the camouflage, the faces of an actor
faces we've forgotten and faces we remember…

Sometimes we can almost see our faces
Sometimes we can almost show our faces
Sometimes we can almost see our faces
Sometimes we can almost show our faces
