Cover My Eyes

About Cover My Eyes

"Cover My Eyes (Pain and Heaven)" is the lead single from the 1991 album Holidays in Eden by British neo-progressive rock band Marillion. A straightforward pop song, it peaked at #34 on the UK Singles Chart, but reached #14 in the Netherlands, becoming the band's biggest hit there since "Kayleigh" (1985). The b-side was the non-album track "How Can It Hurt". The 12" vinyl and 5" CD single included exactly the same tracks as the 7" and cassette single plus another track from Holidays in Eden, "The Party". A Mexican promo was released with the Spanish title "Cubro Mis Ojos". more »

Cover my eyes 
The light falls on her face 
Dangerous lines 
Dangerous colors and shapes 
Ferocious designs 
Connected and ready to play 
Buttoned up tight 
Crimson and Halloween-white 

She's like the girl in the movie when the Spitfire falls 
Like the girl in the picture that he couldn't afford 
She's like the girl with the smile in the hospital ward 
Like the girl in the novel in the wind on the moors 

Pain and heaven 
Pain and heaven 

The meaning of life 
A hair falls out of place 
Cover my eyes 
Dangerous colors and shapes 
And when she moves 
Cover my eyes 

She like the girl on the TV with the red guitar 
Like the girl with the dealer at the end of the bar 
She's like the girl with the smile in the dream in the dark 
Like the girl overtaking in the open car 

Pain and heaven 
Pain and heaven

Marillion

Marillion are a British rock band, formed in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England, in 1979. Their recorded studio output since 1982 is composed of seventeen albums generally regarded in two distinct eras, delineated by the departure of original frontman Fish in late 1988, and the subsequent arrival of replacement Steve Hogarth in early 1989. All four albums released with Fish were commercial successes, and the band released eleven Top 40 hits on the UK Singles Chart, including 1985's "Kayleigh", which reached No. 2 and became their biggest hit single. more »
