Lyrics

FRANKENSTEIN THE MATCHMAKER

Frankenstein the matchmaker
builds the perfect lover
From the faces and the voices
and the memory of the others
he could almost love

Can you see him up all night?
stitching up the final changes
Will he ever get it right?
Isn?t he somebody
you could almost love?

Almost
Any word that comes so close
is only gonna tell you just how far you have to go
Stay there
Tell yourself there?s someone out there
waiting in a story
Now get back to your laboratory

Frankenstein the doctor
Isn?t it appalling
How it got so out of hand
How he missed his calling
It was almost love

Every chance you wouldn?t take
Every flame that couldn?t last
Now you?ve got your pictures out
You?re drinking to the past
And all that almost was

Any time the moment came
You watched it til it turned away
You blamed it on the gods
As if you even hear a word they say
Cover up your ears before
The sound of all that came before
comes calling, yeah it?s calling
You?re almost ready now
Is that what you?d say?

Almost
Any word that comes so close
Is only gonna tell you just how far you have to go
Go there
Could you ever dare
To step outside your perfect mind
Scary what you just might find
